Living in Tiendschuur, Tilburg
Tiendschuur is a compact, predominantly post-war residential neighbourhood in the district Het Zand, in the northwest of Tilburg. The neighbourhood owes its name to the historic tithe barn that once stood here, but the buildings themselves are largely from the 1960s and 1970s: porch flats, stacked construction and terraced houses dominate the streetscape. It is not a neighbourhood that stands out for architectural peculiarities, but one that is functionally and affordably arranged for ordinary city dwellers.
With 1,515 residents and 595 single-person households, Tiendschuur is a neighbourhood of singles and small households. The largest age group is 25 to 45 years (475 people), followed by 45 to 65 years (320 people). Only 21% of residents are married, which reinforces the image of a young, urban and mobile population. Families with children are less represented: the 0 to 15 age group numbers 160 people.
Facilities in Tiendschuur
Tiendschuur borders the Tilburg Noord area and itself has a limited level of facilities, but the surroundings largely compensate for this. Within walking distance you will find a supermarket (the Aldi on Ringbaan-Noord and a Jumbo in the immediate vicinity), and for more extensive shopping, the shopping centre on Ringbaan-Noord is quickly accessible. Primary schools in the area fall under the school cluster of the surrounding districts; parents with children rely on schools elsewhere in Tilburg for secondary education. For sports, there are opportunities via nearby sports clubs in Het Zand and the green zones along the Ringbaan. A large city park is not immediately around the corner, but the cycling distance to the Wandelbos or the Leijpark is limited.
