Wesepe: green, quiet and strong sense of community

Residents know each other, children play outside, and the surroundings are predominantly agricultural and green. On Buurtje.nl, Wesepe scores an 8.5 out of 10, based on resident experiences. This score is supported by exceptionally high sub-scores: green (10), housing (10) and beauty (10).

Read all reviews and view the detailed neighbourhood data on the Wesepe neighbourhood page.
What residents appreciate less is fair to mention: amenities score a 6 and accessibility a 7. Wesepe has no supermarket within walking distance, no train station and limited bus connections. For daily groceries, you rely on Wijhe or Olst, both a few kilometres away. Those without a car quickly notice this. The two sub-areas of Wesepe, the rural area and the core, also differ in this respect: in Buitengebied Wesepe you live even more rurally and isolated, while Wesepe Kern is slightly more compact and offers more social structure.
The largest age group in Wesepe is 45 to 65 years (415 people), followed by those aged 65 and over (255). Families with children are the most common household type, and 46% of residents are married. The village has a stable, somewhat ageing character. Young people and starters are clearly underrepresented, which is partly related to the limited and expensive rental housing supply. Education scores a 7, which is acceptable for a village of this size, but primary school children depend on facilities in the area.
Renting in Wesepe: suitable for those with a car and seeking peace
A rental home in Wesepe is most suitable for families or two-person households who consciously choose a rural environment, a spacious home and little urban bustle. The average rent of €1,242 per month for a home averaging 154m² is on the higher side for the region, but the space you get in return is considerable. Renting in Wesepe is less suitable for starters without a car, people dependent on public transport, or tenants with a limited budget. Considering a home to buy?
