Renting in Reeve: a small housing market with plenty of green and little supply
Reeve is one of the smallest neighbourhoods in Kampen, with just a handful of homes and fewer than 200 residents. Of the housing stock, 42% is rented out, the majority through a housing association (29%) and a small portion through other landlords (13%). The owner-occupied sector dominates at 58%. The average WOZ value in Reeve is around €229,000, significantly lower than the municipal average of €314,000 in Kampen, partly reflecting the relatively young and modest housing stock. Because the total number of homes in Reeve is very limited, the supply of rental properties fluctuates greatly. Check the current availability and average rent at the top of this page. If you are considering looking for a rental home in Reeve, keep in mind that supply here is scarce and can change quickly.
Reeve: young, peaceful and still developing
Reeve is a remarkably young neighbourhood, both in terms of housing and residents. The largest group of residents is between 25 and 45 years old, and families with children are well represented. You can feel it in the atmosphere: it is quiet, orderly, and there is a certain pioneering spirit. The neighbourhood is relatively new and still growing, which means not everything is fully settled yet.
On the neighbourhood page for Reeve, residents give the area a 6.2 out of 10. That is not a high score, but the sub-scores tell a more nuanced story. Green space scores notably high at 9.0, and housing (8.0), community (7.0) and safety (7.0) are also rated positively. Jeanet, who recently moved to Reeve, writes: "it's been really nice and peaceful and cosy so far." That fits the image of a neighbourhood that is still developing, but where living already feels pleasant.
Less rosy are the scores for education (3.0) and amenities (3.0). That is honestly an important point for anyone considering renting a home in Reeve: there are hardly any amenities in the neighbourhood itself. For groceries, schools and other daily needs, you rely on surrounding areas. Accessibility scores a 6.0, indicating that Reeve is not right around the corner from everything. If you are used to a neighbourhood with everything within easy reach, you will have to accept that here. If you are looking for peace and space, you will hardly notice it. If you want to compare how other neighbourhoods in the municipality score, also check what is available for rent in IJsselmuiden or the nearby village Zalk.
Renting in Reeve: for families with patience, less for those who need to move quickly
Given the demographics, Reeve best suits young families or couples who consciously choose space, greenery and a quiet environment, and are willing to sacrifice some urban amenities. For those considering renting an apartment in Reeve or looking for a quick rental home, the supply here is too small to rely on. Students or singles who want dynamism and amenities close by are better off in Kampen itself. If you are unsure between renting and buying, you can also check homes for sale in Reeve, as the owner-occupied sector is larger here than the rental sector. More choice in rental properties can also be found in Grafhorst or Wilsum.
