Renting in Alteveer/Cranevelt: a small market with firm prices
Alteveer/Cranevelt is predominantly an owner-occupied neighbourhood. Of the 1,718 homes, 54% are owner-occupied, while 46% are rented out. That rental portion consists of a relatively small share of social housing (17%) and the vast majority of homes from other landlords (29%). The private sector is thus the dominant rental form, but supply is limited. In the past twelve months, only 16 private-sector homes were rented out, with an average rent of €1,226 per month and an average floor area of 65 m². The range runs from €375 to €1,875 per month, but these are outliers on both sides. The WOZ value, at €451,000, is significantly above the Arnhem average of €323,000, showing that this is a relatively expensive segment. For current rental prices and the current supply, you can consult the overview at the top of this page.
Anyone looking for a rental home in Alteveer/Cranevelt must therefore reckon with scarce supply and a price level clearly above the city average of rental homes in Arnhem. Social housing exists, but waiting lists via housing associations are long and the share is small. Renting in Alteveer/Cranevelt is therefore mainly for tenants with a middle income or higher.
Alteveer/Cranevelt: green, quiet and surprisingly well-connected
Anyone walking around here immediately understands why residents are so enthusiastic. On Buurtje.nl, the neighbourhood scores a 9.3 out of 10, based on resident experiences. Safety and green space both score a perfect 10.0. Amenities also score a 10. These are no coincidences. Simon Brüning, who grew up here and still lives here, describes it as a neighbourhood with "everything you could ever want" and emphasises that despite the quiet atmosphere, it is "secretly quite close to the city centre". That is correct: Burger's Zoo, a bowling alley and the Open Air Museum are all within walking distance. His family member S.M.A. Brüning played football at the local club VDX and attended primary school in the neighbourhood as a child. Both reviews paint a neighbourhood that has offered a safe and stable environment for generations.
The demographic figures confirm that picture. The largest age group consists of those aged 65 and over (995 out of 3,465 residents), and the 45-65 age group is also strongly represented. This gives the neighbourhood a quiet, established character. Younger families are certainly present, but the neighbourhood attracts fewer students or starters than neighbourhoods such as het Spijkerkwartier or het Centrum. Accessibility scores a 9.0, and that matches reality: the neighbourhood is a reasonable distance from the centre of Arnhem, but is well-connected by road. Public transport is available, although the neighbourhood is clearly more geared towards cars than cyclists or public transport users who commute daily.
The neighbourhood Hazegrietje falls within the district area and has a similarly green and quiet character. More information about the neighbourhood as a whole, including all resident figures and scores per category, can be found on the neighbourhood page of Alteveer/Cranevelt.
Does a rental home here suit you, or are you looking for something else?
