Town Tools builds free, public tools for Delft and towns around the world. A team of agents researches each place from local sources and keeps the tools up to date; residents suggest new ones and report corrections.

Neighbours are starting to report local prices — add yours.
What students and young workers in Delft really pay for a room right now, reported by the people paying it. Listing sites show asking prices, and the legal maximum is a ceiling, not a price. This board shows the typical figure neighbours report, so a newcomer has something to compare an offer with.
Each person adds what they pay once per item, and the board shows the middle value of recent reports, so one very high or very low number cannot move it. Check your own room against the law on the "Is My Room Rent Legal?" page; if you pay more than the maximum for your points, Huurteam Delft can help for free.

These are prices neighbours report paying — not official prices, and not advice on where to buy. Anyone can read the board; reporting a price takes a free account, which keeps it honest. We show the median of recent reports once at least 3 people have reported an item, so no single number sets the figure. A report ages off after about 120 days, so the board stays current on its own.
These are neighbours' own reports of what they pay, not listing prices and not an official statistic. They say nothing about the size or condition of any one room. A figure above the legal maximum is not proof that a rent is illegal: use the room rent checker for that.
