A charming municipality in the province of Groningen, known for its rich history and natural beauty.
Oldambt is a unique municipality formed by the merger of Scheemda, Winschoten, and Reiderland in 2010. The main city, Winschoten, serves as a vibrant hub for the surrounding area, which boasts a population of approximately 39,421 residents as of January 2024. This region is characterized by a blend of urban and rural landscapes, with the bustling urban area of Winschoten-Heiligerlee-Scheemda accommodating around 25,000 people. The picturesque Oldambtmeer, an 800-hectare lake, offers a serene escape for outdoor enthusiasts, while the expansive polders near the Dollard coast provide a glimpse into the region's agricultural heritage, often referred to as the 'Grain Republic.' The municipality's strategic location near the German border adds to its appeal, making it a gateway for cross-border activities.
Oldambt is not only rich in natural beauty but also in amenities. Residents enjoy access to the Ommelander Ziekenhuis Groningen in Scheemda, a variety of shopping options in Winschoten, and numerous recreational facilities. The municipality is also home to the Blauwestad residential project, which has attracted new residents and contributed to a gradual population increase. Despite facing challenges related to an aging population, Oldambt has seen a positive trend in its demographics, with a steady rise in inhabitants over the past few years. The local economy thrives with over 16,000 jobs, primarily in healthcare, industry, and agriculture, making it a vibrant place to live and work.
