Living in De Vliert, Den Bosch

De Vliert is a quiet, largely residential neighbourhood on the south side of the centre of Den Bosch. Its character is urban but not busy: wide streets, relatively lots of greenery for a neighbourhood so close to the city centre, and a mix of homes ranging from 1950s terraced houses to detached villas in the more affluent streets towards Vlijmens Ven. It is not a neighbourhood that stands out for a vibrant character or a clear village feel, but rather for a certain tranquillity and solidity.

In terms of amenities, De Vliert does well. Within walking distance you will find supermarkets such as Albert Heijn and Jumbo on the Pettelaarseweg and surrounding area, and the city centre of Den Bosch with the Markt, the Paleiskwartier and all associated shops and hospitality venues is reachable by bike within five to ten minutes. For schools, there are several primary schools in the immediate vicinity, including in the adjacent neighbourhoods. The neighbourhood rating for education and amenities both score a 6, indicating that it is functional but not exceptional. Green space scores a 7: there is sufficient greenery in the streets themselves, and the Bossche Broek, a large nature reserve south of the neighbourhood, is quickly accessible by bike.

Accessibility is a clear plus point. Den Bosch station is about ten minutes away by bike, and via the A2 and A59 you are quickly on the motorway. Several bus routes connect the neighbourhood with the centre and other parts of the city. Residents therefore give accessibility an 8 out of 10. Safety also scores an 8, which is relatively high for a neighbourhood at this distance from the centre.

The total neighbourhood score based on resident reviews stands at 6.9 out of 10. Resident Finney describes it succinctly but honestly: "It's all MID, not bad but certainly not good either. I think it's an okay neighbourhood, actually no trouble from others (apart from my neighbour's tree), it's close to the city and close to supermarkets." That actually sums up the character of De Vliert quite well: not an exciting neighbourhood, but a reliable place to live with a good location. Community spirit scores a 6, which fits a neighbourhood with many single-person households (745 out of approximately 1,620 homes) and a relatively high proportion of 25- to 45-year-olds. People live here pleasantly but do not necessarily interact intensively.

Compared to neighbouring community De Muntel, De Vliert is somewhat greener and quieter in character, while Orthenpoort feels more urban and compact. The overarching district Muntel / Vliert has an average WOZ value of €401,000, but De Vliert pulls that average up with its more expensive segments. More background on the neighbourhood, including all resident figures and map data, can be found on the De Vliert neighbourhood page.

Who is a home in De Vliert interesting for?

The neighbourhood mainly attracts dual-income earners and movers who want to live urban without the hustle and bustle of the city centre. The average purchase price of over €609,000 makes it difficult for first-time buyers, unless smaller apartments become available at the lower end of the range (from €355,000). Families find relatively spacious homes here, but must take into account limited supply: on average only 20 homes are sold per year. Overbidding is realistic in this segment. Those who prefer to rent or are still orienting themselves can also look at rental homes in De Vliert as an intermediate step. Seniors who want to live comfortably and quietly close to the centre also find suitable options here, especially in the more spacious detached homes.
