Evergem has served as an agricultural settlement in Flanders since the Middle Ages. Just north of Ghent, the municipality occupies low, level country shaped by the Ghent–Terneuzen Canal, the waterway connecting Ghent with the Dutch port of Terneuzen. Its component villages, including Ertvelde, Kluizen and Sleidinge, maintain their own local identities alongside a corridor of industry, docks and transport. Evergem belongs to East Flanders’ closely settled countryside, where local roads and cycling routes link small centres with Ghent’s urban edge.
