The Noord district has a housing stock of over 6,280 homes, 38% of which are rental properties. About 22% of these are owned by housing associations, while the remaining 16% are in the hands of private landlords and the free sector. The average WOZ value is €426,000, well above the Apeldoorn average of €378,000.

The average floor area of rented homes was 83 m². With only 67 transactions in a whole year, supply is limited, especially for a district of this size. For a current daily price, you can consult the overview at the top of this page for the most recent status.
Compared to the broader rental market in Apeldoorn, you pay a premium in Noord. This is partly due to the sought-after location near the centre and the green character of neighbourhoods such as De Parken and Het Loo, where homes are more spacious and expensive. For an affordable rental home in the free sector, you need to be quick, as supply is scarce.
Noord from the inside: neighbourhood feel between palace and shopping centre
Residents of Noord give their district an 8.5 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl, and that score is no coincidence. What stands out in the reviews is the combination of greenery, tranquillity and proximity to amenities. Resident C.j. puts it aptly: "There are two supermarkets within walking distance, plus a chemist, Primera, snack bar and Blokker. I feel safe in the neighbourhood and the people are friendly." These amenities score a 9.0, the highest sub-score. Accessibility gets an 8.8: Apeldoorn station is within cycling distance and the A1 is easily reached via Laan van Malkenschoten.
Yet the picture is not entirely rosy. Silvie warns: "Very cosy, beautiful neighbourhood, but being so close to the centre causes a lot of nuisance that enforcement does nothing about." She mentions drunk people on the street and a break-in at her shed. That is the downside of the central location, especially in the neighbourhoods closer to the station and city centre. In the quieter parts towards Kerschoten-West and Stadhoudersmolen, this is much less of an issue.
The neighbourhood feel varies by street. Francis Tiemens describes how neighbours keep in touch via neighbourhood apps and have breakfast together on Liberation Day. In other parts, residents are more private, as Silvie also notes. The district has a clearly ageing profile: the largest age group is 65-plus (nearly 3,815 residents), and you can see that in its character. It is predominantly quiet, with little nightlife and many walkers around Paleispark and Het Loo. For more on the atmosphere and all resident reviews, visit the comprehensive district page for Noord.

A very pleasant and agreeable living environment. Via neighbourhood apps, residents keep in touch with each other and are warned about matters. On 5 May, we had a joint breakfast as a street. In September, we celebrate Neighbour's Day together.
Auto-translated to English by AISuper cosy and beautiful neighbourhood but the location so close to the city centre causes a lot of nuisance that is not addressed by enforcement and/or police. Previously had a drunk vagrant in the shed, who had broken in, and often drunk people in the street. Many neighbours are quite self-centred and think they can 'borrow' our driveway for hours without asking.

Auto-translated to English by AII've only lived here for 4 months. So far I'm positive, there are 2 supermarkets within walking distance and a chemist and Primera, snack bar and Blokker. I feel safe in the neighbourhood and the people I've met so far are friendly. No noise nuisance or anything like that.
