Rijkevoort is a church village with more than 1600 inhabitants. Until 1942, Rijkevoort together with Beugen formed the municipality of Beugen en Rijkevoort. This municipality was then split and Rijkevoort joined the municipality of Wanroij. Since the municipal reorganization of 1 January 1994, most of Rijkevoort belonged to the municipality of Boxmeer. The neighbourhood Rijkevoort-De Walsert was then added to the municipality of Sint Anthonis. Since 2022 Boxmeer and Sint Anthonis have been part of the new municipality of Land van Cuijk.
