Homes to rent in Schaerbeek, Brussels
4 current listings, from €640 a month
Schaerbeek is one of the largest communes in Brussels, stretching north-east from the edge of the European Quarter towards the airport side of the city. It is mixed and lively, and rents here are often lower than in the communes closer to the institutions.
The commune is big enough that the address matters more than the name. The southern part is within about a 15 to 20 minute walk of the institutions, while the north is a proper commute.

Getting around
Several tram and bus lines run from Schaerbeek towards the European Quarter and the centre. Journey times differ a lot between the southern edge and the streets around Parc Josaphat and Reyers, so check the exact address.
If you plan to walk or cycle, look at the homes in the south of the commune first, where the walk to Schuman is shortest.
What it is like to live here
Schaerbeek is known for its Art Nouveau and Art Deco townhouses, Parc Josaphat, and the markets and food shops along its main streets. The Halles de Schaerbeek is a well-known arts venue, and the RTBF and VRT broadcasting towers are near Reyers.
Streets vary from quiet and leafy to busy and noisy, sometimes within a few blocks. Walk the street in the evening before you decide.
