Kortonjo: green tranquillity within walking distance of the city
Kortonjo is located in the south of Eindhoven, nestled between the Aalsterweg and Philips de Jonghpark. It is a neighbourhood best described as green, quiet, yet surprisingly close to the city centre. Residents on Buurtje.nl give Kortonjo a 7.7 out of 10, and that score tells the story: it is a good place to live, but not perfect in every respect. What immediately stands out in the reviews is the high score for green space (9.0). That is no surprise when you walk around. The Philips de Jonghpark, the avenues with mature trees along the Roosten, and the green strips near Eikenburg give the neighbourhood an almost village-like character.
Resident Bram sums it up succinctly: "Nice quiet neighbourhood, all amenities nearby." Those amenities are mainly in the good accessibility and facilities (8.2). Along the Aalsterweg you will find supermarkets, a GP and various eateries. Renske calls the neighbourhood "cosy and safe" and emphasises that it is a place where you can raise children, have peace and quiet, yet easily engage in activities. The safety score of 8.6 confirms that picture. Around Gerardusplein and Kerstroosplein it is truly a classic Eindhoven neighbourhood setting: low-rise buildings, short lines between neighbours, little nuisance.
Yet there are caveats. The scores for education (6.0) and housing (6.6) are lower. Primary schools are available, but for secondary education you have to leave the neighbourhood. And the supply of rental homes is tight, especially for those looking for an affordable apartment. The Genneperzijde area has a few more porch flats, but even there the supply is not abundant.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbours are generally okay, but we have a lot of trouble with mess (rubbish everywhere, and by the bins and surroundings there's almost every day so much junk) and we also suffer from very cheeky screaming, swearing and mess-making, thing-destroying kids. Lately we also have a lot of trouble with junkies, tramps and other scum in the playground!!. Otherwise it's okay, right??
