Gassel: a village where you still know your neighbours
Gassel is a small Brabant village with just over 1,200 residents, located in the rural area of Land van Cuijk, between Grave and Escharen. Its character is rural and quiet, with plenty of greenery and little traffic. The largest group of residents is between 45 and 65 years old, and the proportion of over-65s is also considerable. This defines the village: it is a place where people have lived for a long time and do not leave quickly. Nearly half of the residents are married, and the majority live without children at home.
On the neighbourhood page for Gassel you will find resident experiences and scores per category. Residents particularly appreciate the peace, social cohesion and green character of the village. A common sentiment is that you know everyone here and that the neighbourhood feels safe for children. Less positive are some residents about the limited amenities: there is no supermarket in the village itself, and for daily shopping you have to rely on Grave or Cuijk. Accessibility by public transport is also a point of criticism. Gassel has no train station and bus connections are limited, so a car is practically indispensable.
The village roughly consists of two parts: the centre of Gassel, where most homes and the church are located, and the rural area around Gassel, with more scattered buildings and agricultural plots. In the rural area, larger rental homes or former farmhouses are sometimes available, although this supply is irregular. Anyone considering renting in Gassel consciously chooses peace and space over urban amenities. That is exactly what the village offers, and exactly what it does not offer for those used to something different.
Renting in Gassel: who is this village suitable for, and who is it not?

For starters dependent on social housing, the supply is too limited to find a home quickly.
