Renting in De Katsbogten: spacious homes, limited supply and free-sector prices above the Tilburg average
De Katsbogten is a small neighbourhood on the edge of Tilburg with a housing stock of just 8 homes. Over 62% of these are owner-occupied, making the rental market here scarce. Of the rental supply, 30% is owned by a housing association; the remaining 8% falls under other landlords. Social tenants are therefore dependent on housing association homes, but the supply is minimal. In the free sector, 4 homes were rented out last year at an average rent of €1,450 per month, with a range of €1,450 to €1,450 per month. These are exclusively free-sector homes, excluding social housing. The average floor area was 187 m², which explains why the price is higher than in many other Tilburg neighbourhoods. By comparison, the average WOZ value in De Katsbogten is €227,000, while the Tilburg average is €314,000. View the current rental supply and the daily average rent at the top of this page.
De Katsbogten: busy surroundings, little city bustle, but also little neighbourhood life
Anyone looking for a rental home in De Katsbogten should know where they are ending up. The neighbourhood borders the Tradepark 58 business park, with the Tradepark 58 Noord and Tradepark 58 Zuid areas nearby. This gives De Katsbogten a very different character from a classic residential area: it is quiet, there is little through traffic of cyclists and pedestrians, and you won't find any pavement cafes or playgrounds around the corner. It is a place where families can live relatively undisturbed, but for daily shopping, schools and hospitality you really need a car or bike.
The population is small: just 15 residents, the largest group being children aged 0 to 15. Families with children are the most common household type. That says something about who lives here comfortably: people looking for space, not necessarily liveliness. On the neighbourhood page for De Katsbogten you will find resident reviews and extensive neighbourhood data. Because the number of residents is so small, there are currently limited reviews available, but the impression that comes through is consistent: it is quiet, the homes are large, and the location near the motorway is experienced as both an advantage (accessibility) and a disadvantage (noise). Anyone expecting to live in a vibrant neighbourhood will be disappointed. Those who consciously choose space and peace at some distance from the city centre will find what they are looking for here.
For amenities, you are dependent on adjacent neighbourhoods and the wider Tilburg network. Think of neighbourhoods like Armhoef or the lively centre of Tilburg, a few minutes' drive away. More information about living and permits in this area can be found on the website of the municipality of Tilburg.
Renting in De Katsbogten: suitable for families needing space, less so for starters or city seekers
Based on the data, renting in De Katsbogten is most realistic for families who consciously choose a spacious home, are willing to pay free-sector prices around €1,450 per month, and have no need for a lively living environment within walking distance. Starters, students or people looking for an apartment to rent in De Katsbogten will find little here: the supply is narrow and the homes are large and relatively expensive. Social tenants are dependent on the limited housing association stock. Considering a different approach?

How accessible is De Katsbogten?
De Katsbogten is located near the Tradepark 58 business park and has good access to the motorway, making the neighbourhood easily accessible by car. Public transport and cycling infrastructure to the city centre of Tilburg are more limited than in more centrally located neighbourhoods. For daily amenities, you rely on surrounding neighbourhoods.
Are there schools or shops in De Katsbogten?
De Katsbogten is a small neighbourhood without its own shopping centre, schools or catering facilities within the neighbourhood itself. Residents rely on amenities in adjacent neighbourhoods and the centre of Tilburg. Given the presence of young families in the neighbourhood, the proximity of schools elsewhere in Tilburg is a practical point of attention when renting in De Katsbogten.
For whom is renting an apartment in De Katsbogten realistic?
The housing supply in De Katsbogten mainly consists of larger homes with an average area of 187 m² in the private sector. Apartments or smaller rental homes are hardly available here. The neighbourhood is therefore most suitable for families seeking space and who can afford private-sector prices, and less suitable for starters or people looking for a compact apartment.
