Boulacourt is a commune in the Calvados department in the Normandy region of northwestern France, near the city of Caen. It is not a country, but a local administrative unit of France. It is known for its peaceful countryside and agricultural activities, and has a small population, typical of small French towns.
Located on the Normandy Plain, the climate of Bracourt is mild and humid, making it suitable for animal husbandry and crop cultivation. Historically, the area was close to the battlefield of the Normandy Landing Campaign during World War II, but retains much of its own traditional architecture and idyllic character. The town is known for its low-density residential neighborhoods and green environment.
The local economy is based on agriculture, particularly dairy farming and apple cultivation (for the production of Normandy's famous cider and calvados). Boulacourt has no notable tourist attractions, but is suitable for experiencing French countryside life, with hiking routes and old churches in the surrounding area. It embodies the rustic charm of the Normandy region, and its proximity to cities such as Caen makes it easy for residents to commute.
