By national ratios Hilversum supports about 180 full-time plumber pros — enough for a real local trade with specialists, not just generalists. That is smaller than most Netherlands cities we cover. Ownership is split — 54 % owner-occupied — so a typical week mixes homeowners with landlords and property managers who buy in volume. The housing stock is old for the country, which pushes repair and replacement demand above the national average.
