Renting in Hoogeind: affordable, but almost all via the housing association
Hoogeind is one of the most rental-oriented neighbourhoods in Goirle. Over 57% of homes are rental properties, and the vast majority of these, around 54% of the total stock, are owned by a housing association. The private sector is limited here: only 3% falls under other landlords. This makes rental homes in Hoogeind relatively accessible in terms of price, but the downside is that there is little choice outside social housing. The average WOZ value is €309,000, significantly lower than the municipal average of €410,000 in Goirle, indicating that these are more modest homes. For those looking for a rental home in a quiet, affordable neighbourhood without urban allure, Hoogeind can be attractive. Current rental prices and current listings are at the top of this page.
Hoogeind from the inside: a neighbourhood for those who value peace over bustle
Hoogeind is not a neighbourhood that stands out for trendy coffee bars or a vibrant centre. It is a quiet, predominantly residential neighbourhood on the edge of Goirle, where the average resident is a bit older. The largest age group consists of over-65s, accounting for a third of all residents, and this is felt in the atmosphere. The streets are clear, it is calm, and neighbours know each other. Those looking for an apartment to rent in Hoogeind or a ground-floor rental home will mainly find simple, functional homes here, not luxury new builds.
On the Hoogeind neighbourhood page you can read what residents themselves say about living here. A recurring theme in the reviews is the peace and social cohesion: residents appreciate the sense of overview and safety, but sometimes miss liveliness and shops within walking distance. One resident describes it as: "it's nice and safe here, but for shopping or a night out you really have to take the car." That sums up the neighbourhood well. Hoogeind does not have its own shopping centre; for daily amenities you rely on nearby Goirle-Centrum.
Within Hoogeind there are two sub-neighbourhoods, each with its own character. Geestelijken is a bit greener and more family-oriented, while Herstallen is slightly more compact and has a slightly higher density of senior housing. Those considering renting in Hoogeind would do well to look at which sub-neighbourhood best suits their stage of life. More information about the municipality can be found on the official website of the municipality of Goirle.
Hoogeind suits you if you value peace and affordability over dynamism
