The Arrondissement of Bruges is an administrative division located in the West Flanders province of the Flanders region in northern Belgium. This low-lying coastal territory sits at an average elevation of just seven meters above sea level, bordering the North Sea.
Property in this region is expensive, with average sale prices sitting well above the national average for Belgium. The housing stock is heavily concentrated in just a few key municipalities, which vary greatly in character and cost. The coastal resort town of Knokke-Heist holds the largest share of the region's housing and is by far the most expensive place to buy, with prices far exceeding the regional average. In contrast, the historic city of Bruges holds the next largest share of homes at a much lower cost, while the coastal town of Blankenberge offers a more affordable alternative, with prices sitting well below those found in both Bruges and Knokke-Heist.
