Renting in Eibergen: a small market with a lot of housing association stock
Of the more than 5,600 homes in Eibergen, 34% are rental properties. That sounds reasonable, but in practice the supply is limited: the vast majority of those rental properties (27% of the total stock) are owned by housing associations. Only 7% are owned by other landlords, meaning the private sector here is thin on the ground. Anyone looking for a rental home outside the social sector has less choice than in larger centres within the municipality. The average WOZ value in Eibergen is €337,000, slightly lower than the municipal average for Berkelland (€357,000), which suggests that homes here are relatively affordable. For current rental prices and the current supply, you can consult the overview at the top of this page, which is updated daily. Are you considering buying instead of renting? Then also check out the supply of homes for sale in Eibergen, because the owner-occupied market here is considerably larger.
Eibergen: village tranquillity with a close-knit community, but not everywhere
Eibergen scores an 8.2 on Buurtje.nl, based on resident reviews. That is a solid score, and if you read the reviews, you understand why. Accessibility (8.8) and safety (8.7) score the highest, followed by amenities (8.7). Tom writes: "It is a very quiet neighbourhood in general; from our neighbourhood the Berkel is easily accessible for a walk, and it is also just a few hundred metres walk to the bus station; the people here are very friendly." That combination of nature nearby and a good bus connection is mentioned more often. Harry Zweverink describes the atmosphere as: "Addressing each other and asking how things are going when something is up, and being there for each other." And Ienke even gives a 10: her street celebrates New Year's Eve together with oliebollen and mulled wine, where new neighbours are immediately welcomed.
But not everyone is equally enthusiastic. Lama1977 gives a 6.3 and writes about increasing nuisance in the surrounding streets over the past five years: noise, reckless driving and a rat infestation due to open containers. That is an honest dissenting voice that shows that the quality can vary greatly from street to street. The community score (7.5) and the score for beauty (7.7) are therefore the lowest of all categories, which ties in with this kind of signal. Read all experiences and sub-scores on the neighbourhood page of Eibergen, where you will also find a complete overview of neighbourhood data. Eibergen consists of several neighbourhoods, each with its own character: from the compact Eibergen Centrum to the quieter residential areas such as Simmelink Noord and Bronbeek-Rozenkamp. Those who prefer to live outside the village can also look at scattered housing in the surrounding area, such as near Hupsel-West.
In terms of amenities, Eibergen is reasonably self-sufficient for a village of this size. The centre has shops for daily groceries, schools and medical facilities. The Berkel is within walking distance, which makes it attractive for people who want to be outdoors daily. The municipality of Berkelland provides more information about local amenities and municipal regulations on its website. If you want to compare with other centres in the municipality, Borculo and Neede are interesting alternatives with a different level of amenities.
Renting in Eibergen: who is this a good fit for, and who less so?

Addressing each other and asking how things are when something is up, and being there for one another
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a very quiet neighbourhood in general, from our neighbourhood the Berkel is easily accessible for a walk, also it's just a few hundred metres walk to the bus station, the people here are very kind.
Auto-translated to English by AIOver the past 5 years, nuisance from antisocial people including noise, fireworks, screaming children, reckless driving and mess. Rarely a moment when it's a bit quiet. This ruins the living pleasure I've had for years. Also many open containers and dirt, and as a result a rat plague in the neighbourhood. The little green there is is poorly managed. I have a green garden and there is some municipal greenery, but there should be much more green.
Auto-translated to English by AISome neighbours are quite nice. I've lived here for 32 years now, had different neighbours, and in the last 20 years no one has introduced themselves anymore. There are still two neighbours living here: one has lived here since those houses were built, I get along very well with them, and that other lady I also get along well with. Six houses next to each other, and I've shared joy and sorrow with some. And I think if they have dogs, they should clean up the mess in the grass; you walk in it too. Putting the wheelie bins out and bringing them in is just normal, but it ends up under your shoes.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbours with whom you can regularly have a conversation. Once a year on New Year's Eve we get together to ring out the old year with oliebollen / mulled wine and/or hot chocolate. We take turns organising this. It's also a moment to get to know the new people who have come to live here. We have a mixed neighbourhood. Status holders who are incredibly integrated.
