What does a rental property cost in Theresia?
Theresia is a neighbourhood where renting is the norm: 63% of the more than 2,380 homes are rental properties, and of those, about 36% are owned by housing associations. The remaining 27% are offered by private landlords and investors. This makes the private sector in Theresia relatively small, which is reflected in the limited supply. Over the past twelve months, 37 homes were rented out in the private sector, at an average rent of €1,166 per month for an average of 87 m². The range is notably wide: from €336 to €1,975 per month, depending on the type of home and its state of maintenance. The WOZ value in Theresia, at €288,000, is slightly below the Tilburg average of €314,000, and the average income of €32,700 is also lower than the €34,000 in the rest of Tilburg. This fits the character of the neighbourhood: affordable by urban standards, but not a bargain market. At the top of this page you will always find the current daily price and the current supply.
Theresia: 1930s charm with urban edges
Theresia scores a 7.8 out of 10 from residents on Buurtje.nl, based on seven reviews. That sounds solid, and it is, but behind that average lie diverse experiences. What almost everyone mentions: the location. Resident Mia describes it as a "residential, green living environment a 5-minute walk from Tilburg Central Station" and gives the neighbourhood a 9.6. Tilburg Centraal station is indeed a stone's throw away, and the city centre can be reached within five minutes by bike. Accessibility scores a 7.7.
The atmosphere in Theresia is strongly influenced by the pre-war buildings. Sam writes that "the streets have that nice 1930s feel and there's greenery everywhere." That characteristic architecture makes the neighbourhood recognisable and popular. Amenities score high (8.6) and education even scores an 8.8. Shops, schools and Wilhelminapark are within walking distance. But that very park is also a sore point. Resident F notes: "A lot of trouble around Wilhelminapark. Otherwise quite cosy." And Hidde is outright critical: "A lot of junkies, a lot of students. Crime is rising, there are many burglaries." The safety score of 7.4 is therefore the lowest sub-score. Additionally, several residents complain about litter and dog mess, which explains the cleanliness score of 7.0. Read more resident experiences and neighbourhood data on the Theresia page.
The neighbourhood consists of three sub-areas, each with its own character. In Theresia West you will find most of the housing association homes and a quieter streetscape. The middle section borders directly on the station and attracts more students and young professionals. Theresia East leans towards Wilhelminapark and has a greener appearance, although this is also where the nuisance that residents mention comes together. The largest age group is 25 to 45 years (1,410 residents), and as many as 1,605 of the households are single-person households. Only 23% are married. This is not a classic family neighbourhood, but a neighbourhood of single people, starters and students.
Renting in Theresia: for whom and for whom not?
If you are looking for a rental home within walking distance of the station and city centre, and you like a neighbourhood with character and short lines, then Theresia is a good fit. Starters, single people and young professionals form the core of the rental market here. The high score for education (8.8) also makes the neighbourhood interesting for young parents, although the supply of family homes is limited. If you are sensitive to nuisance around Wilhelminapark or are looking for a well-maintained living environment, then Theresia might not be your first choice.

Auto-translated to English by AILots of junkies, lots of students. Fine as long as they leave each other alone, but when that doesn't happen, you have a problem. Crime is rising, there are many burglaries in the neighbourhood. You don't feel safe, amenities are close by. Rent is proportionate though.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere is a lot of rubbish and dog poo, but otherwise it's a nice neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIA lot of fuss at Wilhelminapark. Otherwise quite cosy
