Rental homes in Tuindorp De Kievit, Tilburg

Renting in Tuindorp De Kievit: an owner-occupied neighbourhood with scarce private-sector supply

Tuindorp De Kievit is essentially an owner-occupied neighbourhood. Three-quarters of the approximately 2,040 homes are privately owned, and only 25% are rented out. Of those rental homes, 11% are owned by a housing association and 14% belong to the private sector or other landlords. This makes the supply of rental homes in Tuindorp De Kievit limited and competition correspondingly high. The average WOZ value of €377,000 is well above the Tilburg average of €314,000, which explains the higher rental prices in the private sector. Over the past twelve months, an average of 20 homes per year were rented out in the private sector, with an average rent of €1,401 per month and a range of €739 to €1,895 per month. The average floor area was 125 m². These are annual averages for the private sector, excluding social housing. View the current supply and daily rental prices at the top of this page.

Tuindorp De Kievit from the inside: green, quiet and firmly established

Anyone looking for a rental home in Tuindorp De Kievit enters a neighbourhood that lives up to its name. The garden village structure is still clearly visible: wide streets with front gardens, plenty of greenery between the homes and a layout that breathes. The neighbourhood lies in the north of Tilburg and has a distinct residential character, far from the hustle and bustle of the Binnenstad. Residents describe the atmosphere on the neighbourhood page of Tuindorp De Kievit as quiet and orderly, with strong social cohesion in the area. A frequently heard comment in the reviews is that neighbours know each other and that it is a pleasant place to live with children, partly due to the presence of schools and playgrounds within walking distance.

The neighbourhood has over 5,200 residents, the largest group of whom are between 45 and 65 years old. You notice this in the atmosphere: it is not a neighbourhood full of students or young starters, but an area of families and established residents. More than 43% of households are married and over a thousand households have children. The labour participation rate is 73% and the average income of €39,500 is clearly above the Tilburg average of €34,000. This gives the neighbourhood a certain stability, but also a somewhat closed character for newcomers. The neighbourhood is divided into four sub-areas: De Kievit Noord-Oost, De Kievit Noord-West, De Kievit Zuid-Oost and De Kievit Zuid-West, each with its own character in terms of building style and green structure.

In terms of accessibility, the neighbourhood is well connected to the rest of Tilburg. By bike you are in the city centre within twenty minutes, and bus connections to Tilburg station are regular. Residents rarely mention accessibility as a problem, but do point to limited parking options in the denser parts of the neighbourhood. Those looking for more urban dynamics can also look at Armhoef or Jeruzalem, which have a slightly different profile.
