The average WOZ value is €235,000. That is lower than the district average of Korvel (€251,000) and significantly lower than the Tilburg average of €314,000.

Living in Staatsliedenbuurt Oost, Tilburg
Staatsliedenbuurt Oost is a compact, densely built urban neighbourhood in the west of Tilburg, part of the broader Korvel district. The neighbourhood consists largely of terraced houses and porch flats from the 1950s and 1960s, supplemented by a small number of more recent renovation projects. The homes have been spruced up externally by housing associations in recent years, but residents are not unanimously positive about what that has achieved in the neighbourhood itself. A long-term resident puts it this way: "The houses have recently been renovated and look very neat, but that's just a facade. It has become run-down." That gives an honest picture of the tension in this neighbourhood: physical renovations on the one hand, a sense of social erosion on the other.
The neighbourhood has about 2,000 residents, with a clear concentration of people aged 25 to 45 (670 people). Single-person households are the largest group (580), only 21% are married. This makes Staatsliedenbuurt Oost more of a neighbourhood for singles and young starters than for families with children.
Facilities in Staatsliedenbuurt Oost
The neighbourhood itself has a limited range of facilities, which is also reflected in the residents' score for facilities (4.7 out of 10). For daily groceries, residents rely on supermarkets in the immediate vicinity, such as the shops along the Korvelseweg and the nearby shopping area towards Tilburg city centre. Primary education is available in the district; for secondary education and larger facilities, residents depend on the rest of Tilburg. Green space scores low (4.3), which is accurate: the neighbourhood is stony and has little public greenery. For parks and recreational space, you need to head to Wilhelminapark or Leijpark, both within cycling distance. Sports clubs and recreational facilities are available in the broader Korvel district, but not right around the corner.
Accessibility
Accessibility is the neighbourhood's strongest point and therefore scores the highest: 7.0 out of 10. Staatsliedenbuurt Oost is a short bike ride from Tilburg city centre (about 10 to 15 minutes). Tilburg station is easily accessible by bike and offers direct connections to Breda, Den Bosch and Eindhoven. Several bus routes run through or past the neighbourhood, so you can get around well without a car. By car, the connection to the A58 (towards Eindhoven and Breda) is quickly reached via the western arterial roads. Parking on the streets is possible, but residents report that traffic nuisance is a point of annoyance: "Despite the speed bumps, they drive like mad and the wrong way", according to one resident. Permit parking applies in parts of the neighbourhood.
Atmosphere and social dynamics
Social cohesion leaves something to be desired, as shown by the reviews on the neighbourhood page of Staatsliedenbuurt Oost. Residents describe the atmosphere as individualistic: little contact between neighbours, few shared activities. A neighbourhood party would be welcome, but it hasn't happened yet. That is a clear difference from neighbourhoods like Schrijversbuurt or Schildersbuurt Noord, which have a slightly more active neighbourhood culture. If you are looking for a lively community, you will find it less obvious here. If you are looking for an affordable rental home close to Tilburg city centre, without the hustle and bustle of the Binnenstad, Staatsliedenbuurt Oost does offer a practical base.
Is a rental home in Staatsliedenbuurt Oost right for you?
Staatsliedenbuurt Oost is most suitable for singles and starters who want to rent affordably in Tilburg and prioritise accessibility over neighbourhood experience.

For the free sector, available rental properties in Staatsliedenbuurt Oost are scarce: only two free sector homes were rented out in the past twelve months. So respond quickly if you see a rental home that matches your wishes, and make sure your income statements and other documents are immediately available.

My husband grew up in this neighbourhood; it used to be pleasant. We've been living here for 17 years now and it has deteriorated badly. The houses have recently been renovated and look very neat, but that's just a facade. It has become impoverished. It's every man for himself. The sense of community is completely gone. I hardly dare to go outside, especially in the evening. Also, a councillor from Delft is ruining the infrastructure.
