The best neighbourhoods in Renkum

There is no single "best neighbourhood" in Renkum. What counts as best depends on whether you want a garden or a tram stop, a primary school around the corner or a quiet night. So what follows is not one list but several — each on a single measurable criterion, with the figure that earned each place shown next to it. 12 neighbourhoods in Renkum are covered by this data.

The spread within a single city is usually wider than buyers expect. The most affordable neighbourhood in this list, Bebouwde kom Doorwerth, has an average WOZ value of €332,000. That is the figure that sets your search area — the question is rarely whether Renkum is affordable, but which part of it is affordable to you.

Noise is the figure most often skipped and most often regretted. A ten-decibel difference sounds small but is perceived as roughly halving the loudness — worth checking before a viewing rather than after.

Most affordable

The lowest average WOZ value — the most useful public figure for seeing where your budget stretches furthest.

  1. 1Bebouwde kom Doorwerth€332,000
  2. 2Heelsum ten westen van de rijksweg€370,000
  3. 3Renkum Zuid€373,000

  7. 7Wolfheze ten zuiden van het spoor€506,000
  8. 8Oosterbeek Noordoost€519,000

WOZ is a tax valuation dated 1 January of the previous year; in a rising market, asking prices sit above it.

  7. 7Renkum Zuid2.7/5
  8. 8Heelsum ten oosten van de rijksweg2.6/5

Highest safety score

The Leefbaarometer safety sub-score, based on recorded nuisance and crime in the neighbourhood.

  1. 1Heveadorp3.6/5
  2. 2Wolfheze ten noorden van het spoor3.6/5
  3. 3Wolfheze ten zuiden van het spoor3.6/5
  4. 4Oosterbeek Noordoost3.5/5

  6. 6Oosterbeek Zuidoost3.5/5
  7. 7Bebouwde kom Doorwerth3.3/5
  8. 8Buitengebied Doorwerth3.3/5

A modelled map based on traffic flows. Nightlife, construction and neighbours are not in it.

Closest to a train station

Straight-line distance to the nearest train station — often the deciding factor if you plan to live without a car.

  1. 1Oosterbeek Noordoost600 m
  2. 2Wolfheze ten zuiden van het spoor600 m
  3. 3Oosterbeek West2.2 km

  5. 5Heveadorp3.9 km
  6. 6Bebouwde kom Doorwerth4.6 km
  7. 7Buitengebied Doorwerth5.0 km
  8. 8Heelsum ten westen van de rijksweg5.4 km

Measured straight-line from the neighbourhood centroid, not walking route. Tram and metro are not counted.

Closest to a primary school

Distance to the nearest primary school — usually where families with young children start.

  1. 1Oosterbeek Noordoost400 m
  2. 2Renkum Zuid800 m
  3. 3Wolfheze ten zuiden van het spoor800 m
  4. 4Bebouwde kom Doorwerth900 m

  6. 6Heelsum ten westen van de rijksweg1.1 km
  7. 7Oosterbeek West1.5 km
  8. 8Buitengebied Doorwerth1.7 km

Distance says nothing about places being available or about teaching quality. International schools are counted separately.

Choosing an area is step one. The address is step two.

These figures describe the neighbourhood. Foundation type, energy label, ground lease and flood risk vary by building — sometimes between two houses on the same street.
