Rental homes in Hoogvenne, Tilburg

What does a rental property cost in Hoogvenne?

Hoogvenne is a neighbourhood where renting and buying are almost evenly split: 51% of the more than 3,300 homes are rental properties. Of these, 23% are owned by housing corporations and 27% by other landlords, meaning the private sector is relatively large here compared to many other Tilburg neighbourhoods. In the private sector (excluding social housing and room rentals), the average rent over the past year was €1,344 per month, with a range of €480 to €2,300. On average, these are homes of around 93 m². This is significantly higher than what you pay in many parts of Tilburg, partly explained by the desirable location close to the centre and the Piushaven. The WOZ value in Hoogvenne, at €356,000, is also above the Tilburg average of €314,000. Want to know what is available today and at what price?

Lots of trees, many students and the occasional bang: this is what Hoogvenne feels like

Hoogvenne scores a 7.4 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl based on resident reviews. That is a solid score, but the sub-scores show where the neighbourhood excels and where it falls short. Accessibility scores an 8.7, and that is accurate: with Tilburg University station within cycling distance, good bus connections via the Ringbaan and quick access to the A65, you are well placed for transport. The scores for green spaces (8.0) and amenities (8.0) confirm what resident Levi van Meel also describes: "A great neighbourhood with lots of trees and beautiful houses." He cycles through it daily and finds it pleasant, although he notes that sometimes bangs or fireworks can be heard in the evening. This ties in with the somewhat lower safety score of 6.3.

Resident Raf Snellens calls Hoogvenne "a cosy environment" and says he has never experienced anything unpleasant, even in the evenings. At the same time, there is criticism of the social cohesion. Jacky describes the neighbourhood as "nice but insular" and feels that the sense of community could be better. The community score (6.3) confirms this picture. In a neighbourhood where single-person households form the largest group (over 2,000 of the approximately 3,300 households) and where many students live, this is not very surprising. The atmosphere varies by area. Around the Piushaven you will find new-build apartments and hospitality venues, while Hoogvenne West feels quieter and greener. In the Veemarktkwartier you are close to creative hubs and studios, and Hoogvenne Oost has more of a classic residential neighbourhood character with pre-war architecture.

In terms of amenities, the neighbourhood is complete. Supermarkets, GPs, primary schools (the education score is a respectable 7.7) and Leijpark with its petting zoo are within walking or cycling distance. The municipality of Tilburg is also investing in the redevelopment of the Piushaven area, which will bring even more activity and amenities in the coming years.
