Living in Eibergen: Berkel, bus line and neighbourly contact
Residents of Eibergen rate their neighbourhood an 8.2 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl. That is a solid score, but the ratings clearly show where the strengths and pain points lie. Accessibility (8.8), housing (8.8) and safety (8.6) score highest. Sense of community (7.2) and beauty (7.6) are somewhat lower. Resident Tom sums it up succinctly: "It is a very quiet neighbourhood, the Berkel is easily accessible for a walk and the bus station is just a few hundred metres away." That is correct: Eibergen has a bus stop with line 74 towards Groenlo and Borculo, and line 71 takes you to Haaksbergen and beyond. By car, via the N18, you can reach Enschede or Doetinchem in about 25 minutes.
In terms of amenities, Eibergen has a complete centre with an Albert Heijn, a Jumbo and various specialist shops. There are several primary schools, including De Windroos and De Keizersmantel, and for secondary education there is the Assink Lyceum. Sports enthusiasts will find their place at football club FC Eibergen, tennis club De Berkel or the De Kuiperberg swimming pool. The green character is a constant: the Berkel winds through the village and the surrounding countryside offers endless walking and cycling routes. Neighbourhoods like Eibergen Centrum are popular with people who want everything within walking distance, while the rural areas around Olden Eibergen and Mallem en Loo offer space and tranquillity.
To be fair, not everyone is equally enthusiastic. Resident Lama1977 gives a 6.3 and describes nuisance in the surrounding streets: "In the last five years, nuisance from noise, fireworks and reckless driving. Rarely a quiet moment." These kinds of experiences depend heavily on the specific street. Resident Ienke (10 out of 10) describes how neighbours annually see out the old year together with oliebollen and mulled wine. That contrast is honest: one neighbourhood in Eibergen is not the same as another. On the neighbourhood page of Eibergen you can read all reviews and view the scores per category, so you get a good picture before making an offer. The municipality of Berkelland also publishes information about zoning plans and permits that may be relevant when purchasing.
For which buyers is Eibergen a good choice?
With an average purchase price around €659,000 and many spacious homes, Eibergen is particularly interesting for movers and families looking for space. The largest age group is 45 to 65 years, and almost half of households are married. First-time buyers with a smaller budget can still find something in the lower price range (from €185,000), but supply is limited. Keep in mind additional costs: transfer tax (2%), notary and valuation costs quickly add up to several thousand euros. Buying an apartment in Eibergen is more difficult due to the limited supply in that segment. Those who prefer to rent can visit the page with rental homes in Eibergen. With 34% rental homes, of which 27% are housing association properties, there is also some choice in that segment.

Addressing each other and asking how things are when something is up, and being there for one another
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a very quiet neighbourhood in general, from our neighbourhood the Berkel is easily accessible for a walk, also it's just a few hundred metres walk to the bus station, the people here are very kind.
Auto-translated to English by AIOver the past 5 years, nuisance from antisocial people including noise, fireworks, screaming children, reckless driving and mess. Rarely a moment when it's a bit quiet. This ruins the living pleasure I've had for years. Also many open containers and dirt, and as a result a rat plague in the neighbourhood. The little green there is is poorly managed. I have a green garden and there is some municipal greenery, but there should be much more green.
Auto-translated to English by AISome neighbours are quite nice. I've lived here for 32 years now, had different neighbours, and in the last 20 years no one has introduced themselves anymore. There are still two neighbours living here: one has lived here since those houses were built, I get along very well with them, and that other lady I also get along well with. Six houses next to each other, and I've shared joy and sorrow with some. And I think if they have dogs, they should clean up the mess in the grass; you walk in it too. Putting the wheelie bins out and bringing them in is just normal, but it ends up under your shoes.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbours with whom you can regularly have a conversation. Once a year on New Year's Eve we get together to ring out the old year with oliebollen / mulled wine and/or hot chocolate. We take turns organising this. It's also a moment to get to know the new people who have come to live here. We have a mixed neighbourhood. Status holders who are incredibly integrated.
