Tuindorp, Eindhoven
This apartment on Gasthuisstraat sits in Tuindorp, a corner of Eindhoven where the streets feel calm and settled. At €1,200 a month, the rent sits well below the neighbourhood average, which makes it a keen option for someone looking for an affordable base in the city. The home is part of the social housing stock, and it comes with an A energy label, so running costs should stay modest. For context, apartments in Eindhoven vary widely in price, but this one is clearly on the lower end.
Tuindorp is a neighbourhood people tend to stay in. One resident, who has lived here since 1994, describes it as an excellent place: "The living comfort is sublime, and in summer you feel like you're in Italy or Greece because of the white houses." They also note that it feels safe, with neighbours keeping a close eye on things. Based on this single review, the picture is of a tight-knit, watchful community. The area is densely built, with many single-person households, and the Tuindorp neighbourhood has a strong urban feel.
For everyday errands, the essentials are close. A Jumbo supermarket is just around the corner, with an Ekoplaza and an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. School runs are short too: SALTO-basisschool de Hasselbraam is on your doorstep, and De Wilakkers is a five-minute walk. The centre of Eindhoven is within walking distance, and the municipality of Eindhoven offers plenty beyond the immediate streets, from restaurants to a park nearby.

About Gasthuisstraat 213, Eindhoven
At €1,200 a month, this apartment is priced well below the average rent in Tuindorp, which sits around €2,662. The floor area of 69 m² is smaller than the neighbourhood average of 135 m², but the rent reflects that. Given the social housing status and the A energy label, the price looks keen compared with other rentals in the area.
An A label is the most efficient rating on the scale, so you can expect relatively low energy costs compared with homes with lower labels. The label is an official registration, and it indicates the home performs well on energy efficiency. This should keep monthly outgoings on heating and electricity manageable.
A Jumbo supermarket is about 290 metres away, which is just a short stroll. There are also an Ekoplaza and an Albert Heijn within roughly 400 metres, so daily shopping is convenient. With 53 supermarkets within five kilometres, you have plenty of choice for groceries.
SALTO-basisschool de Hasselbraam is about 245 metres away, making it a very short walk for primary-age children. De Wilakkers is around 594 metres, and for secondary education, Augustinianum is about 689 metres away. Several other schools are within a kilometre, so options are close by.
The nearest train station is about 2.8 kilometres from the apartment. That is a manageable distance if you commute by rail, though you would likely cycle or take a bus for the last stretch. The centre of Eindhoven is also within walking distance, according to a local resident.
Tuindorp has a strong sense of community, according to one long-term resident who has lived there since 1994. They describe the living comfort as sublime and mention that the white houses give it a Mediterranean feel in summer. The area is densely populated, with many single-person households, and residents keep an eye on the streets.

I've lived here since 1994 and don't want to leave for as long as my life allows. The living comfort is sublime, and in summer you feel like you're in Italy or Greece because of the white houses. It's fairly safe to live here; there's neighbourhood watch and residents keep a close eye on everything. It's a great privilege to live here. All shops and healthcare facilities are within walking distance, as is the centre of Eindhoven. I want to keep living here!!!

Auto-translated to English by AII've known this neighbourhood in Eindhoven for a while, but I've been living here myself for a few months now. I moved here from a less pleasant area and the difference is noticeable. Apart from occasional nuisance from motorbikes and partying people from Stratum, this neighbourhood is really great. Lots of greenery, close to the station and the Jumbo, it's very nice.
Auto-translated to English by AII think the neighbourhood is beautiful because it is very green. There is also one very nice playground with a dog poo field and a log cabin with fun activities.

How residents experience their municipality
Door de vele hoge struiken en bomen langs de straten waar veel doorgaand verkeer doorheen gaat, en slechte avondverlichting geeft een onveilig gevoel.
Auto-translated to English by AINice quiet neighbourhood, all amenities nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet, no nuisance, sometimes difficult neighbours, otherwise everyone is very much to themselves but still always curious about what others are doing. In terms of nature, it is very extensive and there are many opportunities.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a beautiful, quiet, clean and spacious neighbourhood. I experience the area as safe and child-friendly. In terms of noise, it's pleasantly quiet: you hardly hear any planes, at most occasionally a military helicopter during the day. There are good schools and the neighbourhood is very international, with a nice mix of locals and knowledge migrants. This is also due to its favourable location relative to the High Tech Campus, the ASML campus and ISE. Accessibility is good, with several bus lines (401, 402, 403 and 20) and fast arterial roads towards the centre and Best. In the centre of Meerhoven there are three supermarkets (Lidl, Albert Heijn and Jumbo), a GP, dentists and childcare. By bike you can reach Strijp-S in about 10 minutes and the centre of Eindhoven in 15 to 20 minutes. In addition, there is a lot of greenery, with beautiful walking routes along the golf course and through Park Meerland. A downside is that it's not very lively: there are few activities and hardly any catering facilities. All in all, I think it's one of the better neighbourhoods in Eindhoven. The centre is easily accessible by bike and it's a good choice if you want to live quietly, without being too far from the city. If you're looking for a cosy, lively neighbourhood with lots of nightlife, Meerhoven is probably less suitable.
Auto-translated to English by AIA quiet neighbourhood, with nice people. Small playground, large grass field, lots of trees and bushes, many shops and schools nearby. Live close to a beautiful park with a big playground. Near GP and hospital. Neighbourhood is safe and clean. We really enjoy living here.
Auto-translated to English by AII'm constantly asking for advice. Improving the pavements and removing weeds!!! Rembrantplein and 2 other streets really need to be cleaned.! Remco van Wij Eidhoven and I have also spoken to Trudo, but they won't do anything about it.! It's not their responsibility.!! Will you please do something about this? Vaartbroek also got new paving stones. Thank you for listening.

Auto-translated to English by AIUnfortunately, the neighbourhood is deteriorating. A lot of rubbish is dumped and the police often have to come. Education: there are schools nearby and it's green enough. Shops are conveniently close and the houses have just been completely renovated.
