Renting in De Hoge Wal: an owner-occupied neighbourhood with little private sector
De Hoge Wal is primarily an owner-occupied neighbourhood. Of the 386 homes, only 17% are in the rental market, and the vast majority of those (16%) are owned by a housing association. The private sector is therefore extremely small here: in the past twelve months, only one private-sector home was rented out, for a rent of €1,065 per month. That says something about the character of the neighbourhood, but also about the scarcity for anyone looking for a rental home here outside the social sector. The WOZ value of homes in De Hoge Wal averages €486,000, well above the municipal average of €410,000 for Goirle. That reflects the purchasing power of the current residents. For current rental prices and the current supply, you can consult the overview at the top of this page, which is updated daily.
Quiet family neighbourhood with a clear pace of its own
De Hoge Wal feels different from an average Brabant neighbourhood. It is not a neighbourhood that stands out for a busy shopping centre or a lively entertainment square, but rather for what is precisely not there: haste, nuisance, anonymity. The largest group of residents is between 45 and 65 years old, and you notice that in the atmosphere. Streets are quiet, gardens are well-maintained, and the neighbourhood has a natural sense of order about it. Families with children form the largest household group, and the labour participation rate is relatively high at 70%. It is a neighbourhood that people consciously choose, not end up in by accident.
On the neighbourhood page of De Hoge Wal you will find extensive resident reviews and scores per category. Residents appreciate the peace and green surroundings, but also indicate that facilities in the neighbourhood itself are limited. For daily shopping, you are dependent on other parts of Goirle or the centre. If you experience that as a disadvantage, you might be better off looking at Goirle-Centrum, where shops and facilities are closer. Within De Hoge Wal itself, the sub-areas De Hoogte and De Vallei each have their own character, although they are very similar in atmosphere to the broader picture of the neighbourhood.
Accessibility is functional but not exceptional. Goirle is located right next to Tilburg, which means you can quickly get onto the motorway by car. Public transport is available but limited in frequency. If you depend on the bus, you notice that. Cycling to Tilburg is a realistic option for many.

Renting in De Hoge Wal: who does this suit, and who not?
Renting in De Hoge Wal is in practice reserved for a small group. Those who qualify for social housing can turn to the housing association, but must take into account waiting times that are increasing throughout Goirle. For renting a home in the private sector, the supply here is structurally scarce. The neighbourhood best suits peace-seekers, families who already have a network in the region, and people who consciously choose a quiet, green environment away from the hustle and bustle of Tilburg. Starters or young people looking for dynamism fit this profile less well. Are you considering buying here instead of renting? Then check the supply of homes for sale in De Hoge Wal, because 83% of the housing stock is in the owner-occupied sector.
