Living in Hemelberg, Asten

Hemelberg is a quiet, predominantly green residential neighbourhood in the southern part of Asten. Its character is typical of a Brabant expansion district: detached and semi-detached houses on spacious plots, surrounded by greenery. The housing stock largely dates from the 1980s and 1990s, with occasional newer infills. The streets are wide and quiet, with limited traffic. Those who live here consciously choose space and tranquillity within walking distance of Asten's village centre.

The population is relatively older: the largest group of residents is between 45 and 65 years old (245 out of 755 residents), followed by those aged 65 and over (165 people). Families with children are the most common household type. Young people and first-time buyers are clearly in the minority. This is also reflected in the atmosphere: it is a neighbourhood where people live for a long time, neighbours know each other, and turnover is low.

What residents appreciate

On the Hemelberg neighbourhood page you will find the full resident reviews and neighbourhood data. Residents describe the neighbourhood as quiet and child-friendly, with strong social cohesion. One resident writes: "It's wonderfully quiet here, the neighbours know each other, and the children play outside. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else."

Is renting in Hemelberg right for you?
