What does a rental property cost in Beuningen? Scarcity in the free sector
The rental market in Beuningen is tight. Of the more than 7,600 homes in the district, only 31% are rental properties, the majority of which (25%) are owned by housing associations. This means the free rental sector is small: only about 6% of the housing stock is offered by other landlords. In the past twelve months, only 12 homes have been rented out in the free sector. The average rent was €1,643 per month, with a range of €696 to €3,125. This wide spread is due to the supply varying from compact apartments to spacious detached houses, with an average floor area of 179 m². The WOZ value in Beuningen, at €373,000, is almost equal to the municipal average of €377,000, indicating that you are not cheaper here than in the rest of the municipality of Beuningen.

Beuningen: beaver sightings, goose droppings and village tranquillity
Residents on Buurtje.nl give Beuningen a 7.5 out of 10, and if you read the reviews, you get a clear picture of its character. This is not a bustling city district. It is a place where you wake up to birdsong in the morning, walk your dog along green routes, and where neighbours still greet each other. Resident Meike describes it aptly: "Lots of nature. Many little birds and recently even a beaver. It's really alive." At the same time, she is honest about the downside: "There is a lot of goose droppings and also regular noise from the motorway." That motorway (the A73) provides good accessibility to Nijmegen, but causes noise pollution in some neighbourhoods.
In terms of safety, Beuningen scores remarkably high with an 8.3. Resident JM confirms this: "We have never experienced anything unsafe happening in this neighbourhood ourselves." The combination of a nice park for walking and the possibility of living in a detached house makes it attractive for families. And this is reflected in the figures: the largest group of households consists of families with children (2,765). The age category 45 to 65 is dominant with 5,315 residents, indicating a settled, mature population. Young people between 15 and 25, with 1,875, are clearly in the minority.
Facilities score a 7.3 among residents. In the centre of Beuningen you will find supermarkets, a library and hospitality venues, but for extensive shopping or nightlife you have to go to Nijmegen. The community score (6.7) is the lowest, which may indicate the somewhat individualistic character of a commuter village. Yet Tygo Rikken calls his neighbourhood "a quiet little district" where he has had no unpleasant experiences. Want to know more about how residents experience their district?

The green neighbourhoods around De Haaghe and the Beuningse Plas are popular with nature lovers, while the Hoeve neighbourhoods have a more classic village character.
