You are still someone here and not a number. One for all, all for one is still a reality here." That is not marketing talk, but a recurring theme in the reviews. Marc Saanen confirms the location: "In the middle of the village and therefore everything within walking distance. Shops and restaurants nearby, as well as the bus stop. Within 10 minutes you are on the motorway." Accessibility scores a 9.0 among residents.

Budel consists of several sub-areas, each with its own character. Heikant Meemortel Bosch is greener and quieter on the edge, while Keunenhoek Broekkant Schoordijk offers a more mixed living environment. The scattered houses in Berg en Toom and the eastern rural area are interesting for those seeking more space outside the core. One caveat that comes up in the reviews: the rental housing stock suffers from outdated quality. Hanneke writes: "The rental houses are of poor quality because they are old." That affects buyers less directly, but it does say something about the composition of certain streets.

It's very good, I currently have no nuisance and if possible we help each other
Auto-translated to English by AIThe location is perfect. Right in the village centre, so everything is within walking distance. Shops and restaurants are nearby, as well as the bus stop. Within 10 minutes you're on the motorway, so the main roads are also close by. Despite the central location, it's very quiet, although you'll have to get used to the church at first. Especially the bells. The primary school is a bit further away, but certainly not insurmountable.
Auto-translated to English by AII really enjoy living here. I wouldn't voluntarily leave here anymore. Still that old-fashioned village feeling. You are still someone here and not a number. One for all, all for one. That is still a reality here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe rental houses are of poor quality because they are old. But otherwise it's a nice neighbourhood. I just miss some social control.
