Anyone have experience living out in the sticks in NL? My employer are mulling over my next assignment and Emmen in the North East is looking like a likely candidate. Looks like there are some nice towns/villages around the area and it's right on the border. Originally from the UK but have spent time in Poland, Italy and most recently Romania, for context.

Not sure I would call living in Emmen in the sticks

My company are based in Groningen and we used to have an office in Emmen so I was up there quite often.
The town itself is lovely and has everything you need.

An hour from Groningen and Zwolle which are cities, a few mins away from Germany and half an hour from the circuit at Assen.
What is not to like ?

Thanks, I’m a country boy a heart so even if my work is in Emmen, I’d be looking to live rurally if possible. But glad to hear Emmen and around about is decent; certainly looks like it on street view.
