The rental prices of Delft student rooms on the website Kamernet have risen by more than 14 percent over the past year. This is higher than the average, but lower than in cities like Amsterdam and The Hague.

The average Delft room on Kamernet cost 469 euros per month in 2023. In 2022, it was 411 euros: an increase of 14.11 percent. The average increase of 24 student cities on Kamernet was 11 percent to an average of 543 euros. This is according to a national report (in Dutch) by Kamernet itself.
