Living in Kortendijk: spacious layout, but not without caveats
Kortendijk has over 11,000 residents, making it one of the larger neighbourhoods in Roosendaal. It is a predominantly green neighbourhood with wide streets, many single-family homes from various construction periods, and a mix of young families and older residents. The largest age group is 45 to 65 years, but with 1,750 children under 15 and 1,705 households with children, it is certainly also a family neighbourhood. The average income of €37,700 is above the Roosendaal average of €35,100, and 34% of residents are highly educated.
On the Kortendijk neighbourhood page, the resident rating is currently 5.2 out of 10. That is not a high score, and the sub-scores explain why. Resident Abdel notes: "For children, there is no place to play with friends outside, and you have to travel far to the city." Accessibility scores only 2 out of 10, as do amenities. That is a real point. Kortendijk is some distance from the centre of Roosendaal and the station. By car, you can reach the A58 towards Breda or Bergen op Zoom via the Gastelseweg or Philipslaan in a few minutes, but for public transport you are reliant on a limited number of bus lines. Roosendaal station itself offers intercity connections to Breda, Dordrecht and Vlissingen, but you have to get there first. For daily groceries, there is a supermarket near the Gastelseweg, and in Kortendijk C you will find a number of smaller shops. Larger chain stores and the real shopping offer are in the centre of Roosendaal.
What residents do appreciate is the greenery (7 out of 10) and safety (7 out of 10). There are several playgrounds and green strips, and the neighbourhood generally feels quiet and safe. Primary schools are present in the neighbourhood, and sports clubs such as football and tennis clubs are also nearby. For secondary schools, you have to go to other parts of Roosendaal. The municipality is investing in the liveability of neighbourhoods through the Roosendaal programme, but residents notice that facilities for children and young people are lagging behind. Those considering buying a home in Kortendijk would do well to look at the Bakkersberg-Langendijk and Kortendijk A areas separately, as the atmosphere and housing supply differ per sub-area.
Is Kortendijk right for you as a buyer?
Buying a home in Kortendijk is particularly interesting for movers and families looking for space at a reasonable price compared to cities like Breda or Tilburg. The entry prices around €235,000 are still achievable for first-time buyers with a median income, but keep in mind additional costs: transfer tax (2%), notary and valuation fees add up. Seniors can find ground-floor options here, although supply is limited. An honest drawback: amenities and public transport score low, so a car is almost essential. Those who prefer to rent can turn to the supply of rental homes in Kortendijk, although only 28% of the housing stock is rental. Be realistic about what the neighbourhood offers and what it does not.
