Village feel on the edge of Eindhoven: how residents experience Oud-Tongelre
Oud-Tongelre scores a 7.6 out of 10 based on resident experiences. What immediately stands out in the reviews: residents particularly appreciate the greenery (8.6) and the sense of safety (8.0). Resident Joost puts it aptly: "I can safely walk the streets at night, I never had that feeling in Woensel-Zuid." He also mentions the proximity of nature as a major plus. This village character is confirmed by several residents. Isabelle describes the neighbourhood as "more on the outskirts of the city, feels like a village, but it is quite quiet." So if you are looking for a vibrant nightlife or an urban vibe, this is not the place for you.
The neighbourhood consists of several sub-areas, each with its own character. In Muschberg Geestenberg you will find many single-family homes and families, while Urkhoven has more of a mix of elderly people and young couples. The green Koudenhoven attracts people looking for space and tranquillity. Amenities score highly among residents (8.4): supermarkets such as Albert Heijn and Lidl at Winkelcentrum Tongelre are within walking or cycling distance. Resident Bloem confirms this: "Supermarkets nearby, bus nearby. Everything is within walking distance or reachable by bike." However, accessibility by public transport receives a mediocre 6.4. The bus routes towards the centre and Eindhoven station do run, but the frequency is limited, especially in the evenings. By car, you can quickly reach the Ring via the Eisenhowerlaan and John F. Kennedylaan.
Resident Mae offers an honest caveat: "It is an affordable place to still live in Eindhoven. Clearly lower incomes, but definitely safe and pleasant." She misses recreational facilities and sports amenities. The average disposable income of €36,600 is slightly below the Eindhoven average of €38,200, and you can feel it in the atmosphere: unpretentious, down-to-earth, no frills. On the neighbourhood page of Oud-Tongelre you can read all resident reviews and find extensive neighbourhood statistics.
Renting in Oud-Tongelre: for whom and for whom not?
With 2,295 single-person households and a large group of 25- to 45-year-olds, Oud-Tongelre is popular among singles and young couples who want to live quietly without leaving the centre of Eindhoven entirely.

Very nice neighbourhood to live in (old Tongelre). There is plenty to do in the area, for young and old. Supermarkets nearby, bus nearby. Everything is within walking or cycling distance... and of course by car as well.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuite boring because it's more on the outskirts of the city and feels more like a village, but it is quite quiet
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for a year now, and it's an affordable place to live in Eindhoven. Clearly a lower-income household area, but definitely safe and pleasant. Supermarkets are always nearby; I personally would have liked more recreational facilities, such as sports. I'm also quite disappointed in the accessibility by public transport. There is only one bus in my neighbourhood, which runs only once an hour during many parts of the day. It only goes to the station. I would have liked to see more buses with different routes and destinations running more frequently. There is plenty of green space in principle, which is very nice, but I would have liked to see more larger walking areas with routes, especially on the edge of the city.
Auto-translated to English by AII can just walk safely on the street at night, I never had that feeling in Woensel Zuid (Kronehoeve). Many families live here, a few students. You're in nature in no time, lovely place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AITongelre is a quiet neighbourhood and a pleasant neighbourhood.
