There are no social housing units from a housing association; all rental properties in the neighbourhood are owned by private landlords or investors. This makes renting in Trompenberg-Noord a purely free-sector affair, without a waiting list for social housing but also without the lower rents that housing association homes typically offer.

Since this involves a single transaction, a range is not meaningful; consider this amount as an indicative guide price for a free-sector home in this neighbourhood.

Residents most appreciate the peace and green surroundings. On the neighbourhood page of Trompenberg-Noord you can read what residents themselves write. One resident describes it as follows: "You live here as if you are on holiday, but with all the conveniences of Hilversum within cycling distance." Criticisms that come up are the limited shopping facilities in the neighbourhood itself and the relatively high housing costs, both for buying and renting.

Compared to neighbouring areas such as Trompenberg-Zuid and Villaparken, Trompenberg-Noord has a similar villa character, but is located slightly further from the centre. If you are looking for a bit more urban dynamism, you could also look at the Raadhuiskwartier, which is more compact and closer to the shopping centre. The rental housing supply in Trompenberg-Noord is scarce; in one year, only one home was rented, indicating how rarely something becomes available.

Does renting in Trompenberg-Noord suit you?

Trompenberg-Noord mainly attracts families and people over fifty with above-average incomes. The average neighbourhood incomes are €82,000 per year, well above the Hilversum average of €44,400. A rental home in Trompenberg-Noord is therefore not an option for starters with a limited budget or students. If you are looking for a spacious home in a green, quiet environment and are willing to pay for the free sector, you will find a special living environment here. However, be prepared that the supply of rental homes in Trompenberg-Noord is extremely limited: as soon as something becomes available for rent in Trompenberg-Noord, it is wise to respond quickly with a complete dossier (payslips, employer's statement). Social housing is not available here; for a housing association home you can register with Dudok Wonen, the largest housing association in Hilversum, but it has no properties in this neighbourhood. If buying is also an option, then check the supply of homes for sale in Trompenberg-Noord as an alternative.
