Rental homes in Rosmalen-Zuid, Den Bosch

Renting in Rosmalen-Zuid: a tight private sector with hefty prices

Rosmalen-Zuid is predominantly an owner-occupied neighbourhood. Of the more than 3,975 homes, only 23% are rental properties, the majority of which are owned by housing associations (16%). The private sector is therefore limited: only 7% of the housing stock falls under other landlords. This is reflected in the supply and the price. Over the past twelve months, in the private sector (excluding social housing and rooms), homes averaging 160 m² were rented for an average of €1,792 per month, with a range of €1,315 to €2,250 per month. By comparison, the average WOZ value in Rosmalen-Zuid is €556,000, well above the municipal average of €398,000 for Den Bosch. This indicates the kind of housing market you are dealing with here. For current rental prices and the daily changing supply, you can consult the overview at the top of this page.

Anyone looking for a rental home in Rosmalen-Zuid should be aware that supply is scarce and that private-sector rental homes here are generally spacious and expensive. Social housing through a housing association is available, but waiting times apply via the regular allocation rules of the municipality. The average household income in the neighbourhood is €45,900, significantly higher than the Den Bosch average of €40,000, which puts the higher rental prices into context.

Quiet family neighbourhood with a friendly atmosphere, but little urban dynamism

Rosmalen-Zuid is not a neighbourhood that stands out for its hustle and bustle or urban vibrancy. It is a quiet, green residential area on the south side of Rosmalen, with a population that largely consists of families and those aged 65 and over. This combination defines its character: it is quiet, people know each other, and the atmosphere is friendly. On the neighbourhood page of Rosmalen-Zuid, residents give the neighbourhood an average rating of 8.1 based on their experiences, with notably high scores for accessibility (9.0) and safety (8.5). Amenities score somewhat lower (7.0), which matches the picture of a residential area that still needs to head towards the centre of Rosmalen or Den Bosch for daily groceries and more extensive shopping.

Resident Merel van de Klundert has lived in Maliskamp for just over a year and is positive: "The local supermarket is nearby, there is a playground and a small animal park. Also close to a bus stop towards Oss or Den Bosch." This says a lot about what the neighbourhood offers: basic amenities within walking distance, greenery nearby, and a good connection to the rest of the region. In Molenhoek, Pien paints a similar picture: "The atmosphere is very friendly and people are open to each other." She adds something personal: as a transgender person, she feels accepted and treated with respect here, which she experiences as a major plus.

Accessibility is one of the strongest points of Rosmalen-Zuid. The location near the A2 makes the neighbourhood attractive for commuters heading to Utrecht or Eindhoven. Within the neighbourhood, areas such as Maliskamp west and Sparrenburg are popular among families due to the greenery and relative tranquillity. The green score of 8.5 is not marketing talk: it is a neighbourhood with plenty of space, which also explains why the homes here are larger than average. If you are looking for urban amenities, dining, or culture within walking distance, you are better off looking at the City Centre or Graafsepoort.
