Where is it pleasant to live in the
municipality of Eindhoven? Many people associate Eindhoven with Eindhoven Airport or the many factories that have traditionally been located there. People also naturally associate Eindhoven with the conviviality of the south and carnival. But this of course does not give a good picture of living in the city itself. That is why we have looked at what residents think of their neighbourhood and based on that we have compiled a nice top 5.
