Rental homes in Waspik beneden, Waalwijk

Rental prices and market figures for Waspik beneden, Waalwijk

Of the 1,706 homes in Waspik beneden, 32% are rental properties. The vast majority, around 29%, are owned by a housing association. Only 3% fall under other (private) landlords. This means the private sector here is very small: in the past twelve months, one property was rented in the private sector (excluding social housing and rooms) for €300 per month. That figure is too limited to give a representative picture of the market, but it does confirm that the rental supply in Waspik beneden is extremely scarce outside social housing.

The average WOZ value of a home in Waspik beneden is €382,000, which is almost equal to the district average of Waspik (€385,000) and clearly higher than the municipal average of Waalwijk (€341,000). This reflects the relatively quiet, green character of the neighbourhood with many owner-occupied homes. Anyone looking for a rental home in Waspik beneden will find that the supply is limited.

Living in Waspik beneden, Waalwijk

Waspik beneden is the southern part of the village of Waspik, which is part of the municipality of Waalwijk. The neighbourhood has a distinct village character: ribbon development along the Kerkstraat and surrounding streets, many detached and semi-detached houses, a mix of older buildings from the 1950s and 1960s and later extensions. It is not a neighbourhood where you expect much activity or high-rise buildings. Waspik beneden exudes tranquillity, with relatively a lot of greenery and a close-knit social structure rarely found in urban districts.

The population composition confirms that picture: the largest group of residents is between 45 and 65 years old (over 1,190 people), followed by those aged 65 and over (980). Young families and starters are less represented. This also affects the atmosphere: it is a neighbourhood where people have lived for a long time and do not leave quickly, which explains the limited turnover in the rental market.

Facilities in Waspik beneden

For daily groceries, you can go to the supermarket in the centre of Waspik, within walking distance for most residents. For a larger range of shops, Waalwijk city centre is the place to go, a few kilometres away. Waspik has a primary school in the immediate vicinity, which makes the neighbourhood attractive for young families who manage to secure a home there. For sports, there are options: football club SC Waspik is a recognisable anchor point in the village, and the area offers plenty of opportunities for cycling and walking along the Bergsche Maas. For medical facilities and care, there are GP practices in Waspik itself, but for specialist care, residents rely on Waalwijk or Tilburg. More information about municipal facilities can be found on the website of the municipality of Waalwijk.

Accessibility of Waspik beneden

Residents appreciate the tranquillity and the close-knit village community. On the neighbourhood page of Waspik beneden, you can read what residents themselves say about living in this neighbourhood. One resident describes it aptly: "It is quiet here and everyone knows each other, but there is little to do for young people and without a car you are nowhere." That is an honest picture: the neighbourhood is pleasant for those seeking peace and space, but less suitable if you depend on public transport or want a lively nightlife within walking distance.

Compared to Waspik boven, the character is similarly village-like, although Waspik boven has a slightly different building structure. The adjacent Buitengebied Waspik is even more rural and has hardly any rental properties.
