Renting in Zuidland: a small private sector with relatively high prices
Zuidland is primarily an owner-occupied neighbourhood. About 70% of the housing stock is privately owned, and only 30% is rented out. Of those rental properties, the majority are owned by a housing association (21%), while other landlords account for about 9% of the stock. The private sector is therefore limited in size. Over the past twelve months, 21 private-sector homes were rented out in Zuidland, with an average rent of €2,192 per month and an average floor area of 136 m². The range runs from €1,050 to €4,500 per month (excluding social housing). These are annual averages; the current supply and daily prices are at the top of this page. For comparison: the average WOZ value in Zuidland is €349,000, well above the municipal average of Nissewaard of €279,000. Those considering buying instead of renting can find the supply of homes for sale in Zuidland on a separate page.
Quiet polder village with good neighbours, but the bus doesn't stop at your door
Zuidland is a village that takes itself seriously as a place to live, but not as a base for those who want to live without a car. On the neighbourhood page of Zuidland there is a resident score of 7.4 out of 10, based on reviews from people who actually live there. Residents give high marks for safety (8.0), green spaces (8.0) and education (8.0). Accessibility scores the lowest at 6.0, and that is no coincidence.
Resident E.B., who lives in Kerckhoek, writes candidly: the bus runs every half hour or every hour, and from the bus stop it's another fifteen minutes' walk home. For friends without a driving licence, that is a barrier. Eline confirms that picture: "It's a quiet neighbourhood where many cyclists come in summer, there's little for young people to do and the bus connection is dreadful. However, it's nice cycling through the polders." That cycling through the polders is not a cliché, but a concrete plus point mentioned by several residents. The surroundings of Poldergebied Zuidland and Kreken van Nibbeland offer space that you won't find in a more urban environment.
The social character of Zuidland matches the demographic composition: the largest group of residents is between 45 and 65 years old, 45% of households are married and families with children form the largest household group. The Kern van Zuidland has basic amenities such as a supermarket and schools, but for a wider range of shops or hospitality you have to rely on the rest of the municipality. More information about amenities and policy can be found on the website of the municipality of Nissewaard.
Renting in Zuidland: who is this village suitable for, and who is it not?
A rental home in Zuidland is best suited to people who consciously choose peace, space and a recognisable village community, and who have their own car or bicycle as their primary means of transport. Families with children, people aged 30 to 60 and homeworkers who occasionally travel to Rotterdam or Spijkenisse can live here well. For those dependent on public transport, or for young people who want nightlife, this village is less suitable. The private sector is small and supply varies; those who want more choice in the region can also look at rental properties in Nissewaard as a whole.

I recently started living on my own here in de Kerckhoek. For friends who want to visit without a driver's license, it's not always easy to get here. There are buses to and from Zuidland every half hour or every hour, but from the bus station it's a 15-minute walk to reach de Kerckhoek.
