What does a rental home cost in Budel? Free sector from €1,050
Budel is a village where most people own their home: 69% of the more than 4,250 homes are owner-occupied, while 31% are rented. Of those rental homes, about 18% are owned by a housing association and 13% by other landlords. This means that supply in the free sector is limited. In the past twelve months, only 19 homes were rented in the free sector (excluding social housing and rooms), at an average rent of €1,617 per month. The range varied from €1,050 to €2,750 per month, with an average floor area of 129 m². That is substantial for a village in the Kempen, but not illogical given the low turnover. The average WOZ value in Budel is €341,000, slightly below the municipal average of €354,000 in Cranendonck. Want to know what is available today?

Village feel with short lines: how residents experience Budel
On Buurtje.nl, Budel scores an 8.3 out of 10 based on resident reviews, and that score actually tells the story of this village. Residents particularly appreciate the beauty of the surroundings (9.2), accessibility (9.0) and the feeling of safety (8.8). Marc Saanen sums it up succinctly: "The location is perfect. Right in the middle of the village, so everything is within walking distance. Shops and restaurants nearby, as well as the bus stop. Within ten minutes you are on the motorway." That combination of village tranquillity and good access to the A2 and Eindhoven is one of Budel's strongest assets.
The sense of community is something several residents mention. Coby v.d. Schoot writes: "Still the old-fashioned village feeling. Here you are still someone and not a number. One for all, all for one. That is still reality here." Willie Scheffers confirms that: no nuisance, and neighbours who help each other when needed. At the same time, the picture is not entirely rosy. Hanneke gives a 7.1 and notes that the rental houses are of poor quality because they are old, and that she misses social control. That honest caveat fits with the sub-score for housing, which at 7.5 is the lowest. Read more reviews and neighbourhood data on the page about Budel to get a complete picture.
In terms of daily amenities, Budel has everything you need: a supermarket, bakery, GP and primary schools. The sub-score for amenities is 8.5 and for education 7.8. The centre around the Markt is compact but functional. If you are looking for more choice in shops or restaurants, you can drive to Weert or Eindhoven in a quarter of an hour. The immediate surroundings are green, with agricultural land and nature areas in the Kempen, although green scores 7.8, not the highest. This is probably due to the fact that the village itself is quite built-up. In the neighbourhood Heikant Meemortel Bosch you will find more space and a more rural character, while the centre of Budel is more compact and lively.
Renting in Budel: for families and over-45s, less for starters
With an average income of €35,400 and free-sector rents starting around €1,050, a rental home in Budel is most realistic for dual-income earners or households with a modal-plus income. The largest age group is 45 to 65 years (2,650 residents), and the 65-plus group is also well represented with 2,405 residents. For starters or single people with a smaller budget, the free sector here is difficult to afford, and waiting lists for social housing via the association are long. If you are looking for more affordable options, also check the supply in Maarheeze or Soerendonk. Considering buying instead of renting?

It's very good, I currently have no nuisance and if possible we help each other
Auto-translated to English by AIThe location is perfect. Right in the village centre, so everything is within walking distance. Shops and restaurants are nearby, as well as the bus stop. Within 10 minutes you're on the motorway, so the main roads are also close by. Despite the central location, it's very quiet, although you'll have to get used to the church at first. Especially the bells. The primary school is a bit further away, but certainly not insurmountable.
Auto-translated to English by AII really enjoy living here. I wouldn't voluntarily leave here anymore. Still that old-fashioned village feeling. You are still someone here and not a number. One for all, all for one. That is still a reality here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe rental houses are of poor quality because they are old. But otherwise it's a nice neighbourhood. I just miss some social control.
