Rental homes in Wieringerwerf, Hollands Kroon

Renting in Wieringerwerf: a small private sector, but affordable prices

The rental market in Wieringerwerf is relatively limited. Of the approximately 2,753 homes in the neighbourhood, 33% are rental properties, the vast majority of which are owned by a housing association (27%). The private sector is therefore small: only 7% of homes fall under other landlords. This translates into a modest supply for those looking for a rental home outside social housing. In the private sector, 6 homes were rented out last year, with an average rent of €961 per month for an average of 74 m². The range ran from €787 to €1,245 per month. By comparison, the average WOZ value in Wieringerwerf is €310,000, slightly below the municipal average of €332,000 for Hollands Kroon.

Wieringerwerf: polder tranquillity, sporty neighbours and a remarkably high living score

Those who live in Wieringerwerf live in a village that has never denied its roots as a planned polder settlement. The straight roads, the vastness, the views over meadows: it is a neighbourhood where you feel the space. Resident Sven simply describes his neighbourhood as "home": nice people, lots of sports activities nearby and a beautiful view over the meadows from his own home. That sense of space and community atmosphere is also reflected in the resident score on the Wieringerwerf neighbourhood page: an 8.4 out of 10, with highs for safety (10.0), housing (10.0) and green space (9.0). Accessibility scores a lower 7.0, and community gets a 6.0, suggesting that social cohesion is not equally strong for everyone.

Wieringerwerf consists of several neighbourhoods, each with its own character. The shopping centre and daily amenities are concentrated in the centre of Wieringerwerf, while residential areas such as the Planetenwijk and the Schepenwijk have a quieter, more family-oriented character. On the edge of the village lie the Buitengebied Wieringerwerf and the Bedrijventerrein Robbenplaat, for those who want work and living close together. Accessibility by car is reasonable via the N99 towards Den Helder and the A7 towards Amsterdam, but public transport is limited, which is a point of attention if you do not have a car.

The population is relatively old: the largest group is 45 to 65 years old, and the 65-plus group is also heavily represented. This colours the atmosphere of the neighbourhood: quiet, orderly, with little nuisance. The municipality of Hollands Kroon offers more information about amenities and municipal services in the region on its website.
