Living in Jagersbuurt West, Tilburg
Jagersbuurt West lies to the west of Tilburg city centre, in the district of Het Zand. It is a post-war neighbourhood built largely in the 1950s and 1960s, with a mix of porch flats, terraced houses and a few smaller apartment complexes. The neighbourhood has a compact, urban layout with narrow streets and relatively little space between buildings. There is greenery, but more in the form of some trees along the pavement than actual parks. The atmosphere is that of an average working-class neighbourhood: down-to-earth, mixed in terms of population, and with a strong representation of single people (470 one-person households out of 1,300 residents). The largest age group is 25 to 45 years, which fits the picture of a neighbourhood with many starters and young tenants.

Safety scores a 5.0 out of 10 in the resident rating. Residents report nuisance from loitering youths and speeding drivers. The neighbourhood is functional and affordable, but there are clear points for attention in terms of safety and beauty. More supervision is seen as necessary by residents.
From a pleasant neighbourhood it has changed to unfortunately no longer a safe, clean neighbourhood. There is absolutely more supervision needed, not just to fatten the tax coffers with so many expensive car checks, seizures/confiscations. Nuisance from loitering youths, racing at 80-100 on a 50 road... road blockades with cars at the height of the playground. As a result of various developments, more shops are often empty. Or only more foreign barbershops come, likewise mobile phone shops fill up. Hope that with the "major renovation" new construction also gets attention for safety and nature.
