Living between the Roer and the Maas: what it really feels like to live in the Centrum
The Centrum of Roermond is no ordinary city centre. Here you have the historic Munsterkerk around the corner, the shopping area around the Neerstraat and Markt, and within walking distance the Roer that winds through the neighbourhood. It is a place where you stand at a local bakery on the Steenweg in the morning and sit on the train to Eindhoven or Maastricht via Stationsplein within ten minutes in the afternoon. Resident Robin sums it up succinctly on the neighbourhood page of Centrum: "Is a top neighbourhood, everything is nearby." That rating of 9.1 out of 10 is supported by perfect scores for accessibility, amenities, education and beauty (all a 10). Safety and sense of community score an 8, which is solid for a city centre neighbourhood.
The neighbourhood consists of various districts, each with its own character. In Binnenstad you literally live above the shops and catering establishments, while Roerzicht along the Roer has a quieter and greener character. The Willem-Alexander district is newer and mainly attracts young professionals, and in Voorstad you will find the slightly wider streets with more family homes. That green feeling, a 9 out of 10 from residents, comes partly from the parks along the Roer and the proximity of the Maasplassen.
What you should know: the neighbourhood has a sizeable group of over-65s (3,245 residents), but the largest group is also 25 to 45 years old (3,270). This creates a mix of established older people and younger renters. Almost half of the households are single-person (3,845), so you notice that the Centrum is popular among singles. The average income of €38,900 is above the Roermond average of €34,700, which fits the higher price level. Honestly: if you are looking for a cheap rental home, the Centrum is not the most obvious choice. The free sector dominates and waiting times for social housing are long.
Renting in the Centrum: who does it work for, and who not?
With 41% highly educated and an above-average income, the Centrum mainly attracts working professionals, couples without children and active seniors. If you are a starter with a modest budget, it becomes difficult: the average rent of €1,185 per month in the free sector is substantial, and the housing association stock (20%) offers limited alternatives. Families with children will find more space for less money in Roermond-Zuid or Maasniel. Prefer to buy?
