Why is Waubacherveld at the top?
Waubacherveld scores a 4.2 on this list, with an average property value of € 277,000. That is the highest of every neighbourhood in Kerkrade that has a grade for this measure.
How often are these figures updated?
The figures come from the CBS neighbourhood statistics for 2025. Both are published once a year; the list is recalculated as soon as a new edition appears.
