What does a rental property cost in Raamsdonksveer?
The rental market in Raamsdonksveer is relatively small. Of the 5,655 homes in the neighbourhood, 39% are rental properties, and the majority of these (34% of all homes) are owned by housing associations. Only 5% are owned by other landlords, meaning the supply in the private sector is limited. In the past twelve months, only 15 private-sector rental properties were let, at an average rent of €1,467 per month. The range was between €1,252 and €1,550 per month, with an average floor area of 78 m². That is steep for a village of this size. The average WOZ value is €335,000, slightly above the municipal average of €329,000 for Geertruidenberg. The modal income of €36,400 means that renting in the private sector takes a significant bite out of the budget for some residents. Want to know what is available today?

Raamsdonksveer: quiet village life with short lines
On Buurtje.nl, residents rate Raamsdonksveer an 8.0 out of 10, based on five reviews. What immediately stands out: accessibility scores highest at 8.8 and safety gets an 8.4. Those scores are no surprise if you walk around here. Raamsdonksveer is nestled between the A59 and the Oude Maasje, a stone's throw from Oosterhout and Waalwijk. You can be on the motorway within ten minutes, but in the village itself it is quiet. One resident summed it up aptly: "A boring place where nothing happens, ideal for a quiet life." The same reviewer does emphasise that you are within walking distance of the historic Geertruidenberg, which likes to call itself the oldest city in the Netherlands.
The atmosphere varies by neighbourhood. In the heart of Raamsdonksveer itself you will find most amenities: supermarkets, a GP, primary schools and the De Donk shopping centre. Towards Hooipolder and De Hoeven it becomes greener and more spacious, with newer family homes. Resident M.F. gives the neighbourhood a 9.5 and writes: "You can practically leave your bike unlocked here, with nice neighbours who are willing to help each other." That image of mutual involvement comes up more often. A resident of a care home says the neighbourhood is "very concerned" about the elderly residents.
Yet it is not all roses. Resident Noa gives a 6.4 and points to loitering youth and nuisance in certain parts. The score for cleanliness is the lowest sub-score at 7.0, and another reviewer specifically complains about dog mess on the pavement. It is fair to say that Raamsdonksveer has no vibrant nightlife and that amenities are limited to the basics. For more extensive shopping or a night out, you drive to Oosterhout or Breda. More experiences and all sub-scores can be found on the neighbourhood page of Raamsdonksveer with all resident reviews.
