Een-West is a statistical entity, and has its own postal code.{{cite web|url=https://postcodebijadres.nl/9343 |title=Postcode 9343 in Een-West |website=Postcode bij adres |access-date=9 March 2022 |language=nl}} however it is considered part of Een and outside the build-up area.{{cite web|url=https://www.plaatsengids.nl/een-west |title=Een-West |website=Plaatsengids |access-date=9 March 2022 |language=nl}} The area used to be close to uninhabited, but had a strategic value. In 1593, the stadtholder William Louis of Nassau built a sconce at {{ill|Zwartendijksterschans|nl}} on road between Friesland and Drenthe through the moorland. Later the sconce deteriorated and the area became part of Drenthe. The sconce was restored in 1980.{{cite web|url=https://www.canonvannederland.nl/nl/drenthe/noordenveld/zwartendijksterschans |title=Zwartendijksterschans |website=Canon van Nederland |access-date=9 March 2022 |language=nl}} In 1928, a little church was built in Een-west.
