Kattendijke, affordable and rural
On the north side of the municipality lies Kattendijke, a small village with views over the Veerse Meer area. The neighbourhood score is 7.2, lower than other neighbourhoods, partly due to limited amenities: there is no supermarket and public transport is scarce. On the other hand, prices here are noticeably lower than in the centre or Kloetinge, making it interesting for buyers with a tighter budget. View the housing supply in Kattendijke.
In addition, there are a few smaller villages worth considering. Wolphaartsdijk lies on the Veerse Meer and attracts buyers who enjoy water sports. 's-Heer Arendskerke is a quiet village south of the A58 with relatively affordable homes. And Wilhelminadorp is a compact core for those who truly want to live rurally. On the municipality page of Goes you will find all ratings and reviews per neighbourhood.
What to look out for when buying a home in Goes?
A few concrete tips if you are considering looking for a home to buy in Goes:
1. Compare neighbourhoods on more than just price. The difference between Goes-centrum and a village like Kattendijke is large, not only in price but also in amenities, public transport accessibility and the type of neighbourhood. Buying a home in Goes means choosing between urban convenience and rural peace, sometimes just five kilometres apart.
2. Take market conditions into account. With 390 transactions in the past year, the market in Goes is reasonably active. Popular homes in the centre or Kloetinge sell quickly, sometimes within a few weeks. In the outer villages, you generally have more room for negotiation as a buyer. Engage a local buying agent who knows the Beveland market.
3. Check accessibility per neighbourhood. Goes station is centrally located, but from villages like Wolphaartsdijk or Wilhelminadorp you are dependent on the car or bus (and it does not always run frequently). If you commute daily, weigh that up.
4. Use neighbourhood data for your choice. On Buurtje.nl you can view residents' scores per neighbourhood on themes such as safety, green space and amenities. That gives a fairer picture than just a viewing on a sunny Saturday. Considering renting as well? Then check the rental homes in Goes as an alternative.
What residents say about living in Goes
Goes receives an average score of 8.5 from residents based on 15 reviews. The category green space (9.3) and safety (8.9) score notably high. Residents appreciate the combination of a complete range of amenities with a small-scale, clear atmosphere. The lowest score is for amenities (7.8), which seems mainly due to the smaller villages where shops and hospitality are limited. One resident of 's-Heer Hendrikskinderen summed it up: "You live here in the quiet, but you are in the centre of Goes within five minutes." Curious about all experiences? Read all reviews of Goes.

We've been living here for 15 years with pleasure. Green and quiet. Lots of nature. Good social control, not always in each other's homes, but always helpful. One point of attention: the A256 motorway is causing increasing noise pollution. More and more (freight) traffic, (tourist) route from the Westerscheldetunnel, increasingly heavier cars (battery packs) and outdated joints in the viaduct.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are high-rise buildings, rental and owner-occupied homes, lots of greenery, a deer park, schools. Residents are mixed in terms of age and nationality. Generally a clean, quiet neighbourhood. In some places less so. People are friendly, tidy and interested in each other. A good neighbourhood to live in.
Auto-translated to English by AIthe neighbourhood is fairly quiet, Hertekamp within walking distance, forest within walking distance, schools nearby, rental and owner-occupied homes, apartments and low-rise buildings. playground etc, lots of variety in people in terms of old and young,
Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice neighbourhood with very nice people, lots of green, parks and playgrounds, plenty of parking, many children in the neighbourhood. There are also shops within walking distance, which is nice. And we as neighbours help each other with all sorts of chores, which is nice when you can help someone. So I think my living environment is great. In my street you are allowed to drive, but only to load and unload, so it is safer for the children and the neighbourhood. The street is also kept clean by the residents; we also trim hedges that are too high and overhang onto the street. So it's nice to live here. The houses are well insulated, just great. Schools are good and safely accessible.
