Living in Dullaert, Hulst

Dullaert is a quiet, green residential neighbourhood on the edge of the historic town of Hulst. The neighbourhood has a distinct character: it is not a city-centre neighbourhood, but a place where people have lived for decades and know each other. The streets are spacious, there is plenty of greenery, and the streetscape is dominated by terraced houses and detached houses from the 1970s and 1980s, with occasional newer infills. It is not a neighbourhood that stands out for architectural features, but rather for the peace and social cohesion that residents appreciate.

Resident P. Segers describes the neighbourhood as "cosy and family-friendly" and gives an overall score of 8.2 out of 10. What stands out in that assessment is the high score for accessibility (9.0), greenery (9.0) and education (9.0). This matches what you actually find in the neighbourhood: several primary schools within walking distance, a community centre, a fitness location and access to nature parks for a walk. The lower score for beauty (7.0) is honest: Dullaert is functional and green, but not particularly attractive in terms of monumental buildings or special public spaces.

In terms of amenities, the neighbourhood scores well for a neighbourhood of this size. There are several schools within walking distance, there is a community centre in the area, and nature is literally around the corner. The Zwinstreek and the Verdronken Zwarte Polder are a short bike ride away and offer extensive walking opportunities. For daily shopping, the centre of Hulst is within cycling distance, where supermarkets, shops and catering establishments can be found. The municipality of Hulst also has its own municipal website with information about local amenities and events: hulst.nl.

Accessibility by car is good: the N290 and the connecting roads towards Terneuzen and the Belgian border are quickly reachable. Hulst is located in the Zeeuws-Vlaanderen region, which means train connections are limited. Bus connections do exist, but the frequency is modest compared to more urban areas. Those who depend on public transport would do well to check this thoroughly in advance. For those who commute by car to Ghent or Antwerp, the location is actually favourable, with the Belgian border a quarter of an hour's drive away.

Compared to neighbouring neighbourhoods such as Binnenstad or Linie, Dullaert is quieter and less centre-oriented. Nassau and Puienput are similar residential neighbourhoods, but Dullaert distinguishes itself through the combination of greenery, proximity to nature and a stable, older population composition. More than 400 of the 1,430 residents are 65 years or older, which partly explains the quiet atmosphere. More neighbourhood information, resident reviews and district data can be found on the neighbourhood main page of Dullaert.

Does an owner-occupied home in Dullaert suit you?

Dullaert is primarily a neighbourhood for people who value peace, space and greenery over urban liveliness. The older population structure and the high proportion of elderly people make it a suitable neighbourhood for seniors and people who consciously choose a calm living environment. Families with children can benefit from the schools within walking distance and the safe, green streets. Starters may find a starter home at the lower end of the range, although supply is limited: on average, only a handful of homes are sold per year. Those considering renting as an intermediate step or alternative can also look at the rental properties in Dullaert. An honest drawback: supply is scarce and the market is not very active, so those who want to buy in Dullaert need patience.
