Rental homes in Kaatsheuvel-West, Loon op Zand

What does a rental property cost in Kaatsheuvel-West?

Kaatsheuvel-West is a neighbourhood where most homes are privately owned: 62% are owner-occupied, while 38% of the housing stock is rented out. Of those rental properties, the majority (29% of the total) are owned by housing associations, meaning the private sector is relatively small. This is reflected in the limited supply: in the past twelve months, only 23 rental homes were let in the private sector. The average rent was €1,756 per month, with a range from €1,240 to €2,750. The average floor area of those homes was 163 m², so you do get space for that amount. By comparison, the average WOZ value in Kaatsheuvel-West is €345,000, slightly below the municipal average of €365,000 in Loon op Zand. The average income of €34,000 is also just below the municipal level of €35,900. For current daily prices and the latest supply, you can consult the overview at the top of this page.

Green and tidy, but not equally vibrant for everyone

Residents of Kaatsheuvel-West rate the neighbourhood a 7.3 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl. Notably high scores are for cleanliness (8.0) and education (8.0), while housing scores the lowest at 6.2. This fits the picture of a neighbourhood that looks well-maintained, but where the housing supply is limited and not always innovative. Resident Robbert writes: "The area has become increasingly tidy and greener, the council is quite active around the Vossenbergselaan and side streets." That Vossenbergselaan runs through the Vossenberg (west) and Vossenberg (east) neighbourhoods, and the green maintenance there is indeed noticeable. Stefan calls the neighbourhood "beautiful, centrally located" and praises the friendly residents.

Yet it is not all roses. Lyanne gives a 6.0 and notes that there is little to do in the area and that "drunken men constantly hang around in the village." That experience seems to be mainly around the Centrum, where the hospitality venues are concentrated. The community score of 6.8 confirms this: the social fabric exists, but is not equally strong everywhere. Those looking for a lively neighbourhood with plenty of activities should take that into account. Accessibility scores a 7.5, which is logical given its location near the A261 towards Waalwijk and Tilburg. Own transport is important, as public transport is limited in this region. On the neighbourhood page of Kaatsheuvel-West you will find all resident reviews and detailed figures on safety, greenery and amenities.

In terms of amenities, Kaatsheuvel-West has a reasonable supply of primary schools (the education score of 8.0 speaks volumes), supermarkets and sports clubs. The municipality of Loon op Zand visibly invests in green maintenance and public spaces. The neighbourhood consists of very diverse areas: from the quiet Bloemenbuurt and the Schrijversbuurt to the busier De Kets industrial estate. This variation means that the living experience differs greatly per street.

Renting in Kaatsheuvel-West: for families with room in the budget

With an average rent of €1,756 in the private sector and a large share of families with children (1,680 households), Kaatsheuvel-West mainly attracts dual-income earners and families who want to live spaciously outside the city. The good schools and greenery make it attractive for young parents. For starters or single people on a modal income, a rental home in the private sector is difficult to afford here. They are dependent on the social rental sector, where waiting times in this region can be considerable. Those who prefer to buy and can thus reduce monthly costs can look at the supply of homes for sale in Kaatsheuvel-West. For renters looking for more buzz or with a lower budget, it is wise to also look at Kaatsheuvel-Oost or the small-scale De Moer.
