Gildebuurt, Eindhoven
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Veldmaarschalk Montgomerylaan sits in the lively Gildebuurt, a stone's throw from Eindhoven's centre. At 57 m² it's compact, but the energy label B keeps running costs manageable. The asking price of €329,500 is 32% below the neighbourhood average of €485,075, making it a keen entry point into Eindhoven's market for apartments in Eindhoven.
The Gildebuurt is a dense, urban neighbourhood with a mix of shops and services. Based on two reviews, opinions are mixed: one resident says, "It's a shame there's so much filth and that people throw every cigarette butt and all rubbish on the street, and that a lot gets vandalised. Homeless people regularly sleep under the balconies and often leave their excrement and mess behind." Another, who has lived there three months as an anti-squatter, says, "I think it's a pleasant working-class neighbourhood." The area has a very high density of addresses (3,946 per km²) and a young population, with 42% aged 25-45. Most homes are flats, and 29% are owner-occupied. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Gildebuurt.
Daily errands are easy: Ekoplaza is just around the corner, and AH to go and Jumbo are a couple of streets away. For fresh bread, the Lidl is a five-minute walk. Primary school Fellenoord is on your doorstep, and Salto Jenaplanschool De Driestam is a five-minute walk. The neighbourhood has a high number of reported incidents (208 total), but the central location and proximity to the train station (a ten-minute walk) make it practical. For more on the wider area, see the municipality Eindhoven.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Alberti Garantiemakelaars and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

The apartment is nice. The accessibility of the shops is fine, but I don't understand why the municipality doesn't make more effort to make the neighbourhood pleasant for everyone. Why six barbers on the street and so many shisha shops and Turkish clothing shops? Provide diversity! Few social contacts because the people hardly speak any Dutch. Complacency of the Eindhoven municipality?
