Afrikaanderbuurt Midden, Tilburg
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Generaal de Wetstraat in Tilburg was built in 2009, so it's a relatively modern home. The listing does not state an energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €275,000, the asking price is 20% below the neighbourhood average of €341,667, which is keen given the 55 m² floor area is 44% smaller than the average of 98 m². For context, this is one of the apartments in Tilburg.

A third notes it's "Run-down" and "used to be cosy, but not anymore." The neighbourhood has a young population, with many single-person households and a large share of residents aged 25-45.

Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood with many young families. Lots of amenities (schools, daycare centres, supermarket, doctor, pharmacy, bus stop(s), small park, playgrounds)
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are confused people living in the neighbourhood, who no longer make the street pleasant. Why aren't they being helped? We used to have such a nice street. Get support services involved, not the police, and cameras would be desirable against unsafe situations and burglaries.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople keep to themselves a lot. Shutters closed early, and a hello is barely possible. Cars are sometimes parked antisocially. We do accept parcels for each other. It's a mixed company: Dutch, Polish, Turkish. Owner-occupied and rental properties mixed together, poorly maintained houses, gates have weeds a metre high, bulky household waste is regularly dumped.

About Generaal de Wetstraat 74-02, Tilburg
The asking price of €275,000 is 20% below the neighbourhood average of €341,667. However, the floor area of 55 m² is 44% smaller than the average of 98 m². Compared to recent sales in the area, which averaged €260,500, the price is slightly above that. So it's keen relative to the average asking price, but you're paying for a smaller home.
Residents have expressed concerns about safety. One review says "you never see police here" and another mentions "lots of crime, don't go outside in the evening anymore." The total number of crimes reported in the neighbourhood is 100, which is relatively high for an area of this size. It's worth being aware of this if safety is a priority.

Yes, several supermarkets are within a short walk. Jumbo is 526 m away (about a six-minute walk), Aldi is 578 m, and Nettorama is 629 m. Albert Heijn is a bit further at 777 m. So daily shopping is convenient.
There are several schools within walking distance. SBO Zonnesteen (special primary) is 228 m away, Kindcentrum De Triangel (primary) is 395 m, and Campus 013 (secondary) is 694 m. So it's a practical location for families with school-age children.
