Living in Trouwlaan, Tilburg
Trouwlaan is a long, busy traffic artery on the south side of Tilburg city centre. The neighbourhood has an urban, somewhat messy character with a mix of pre-war and post-war homes: you'll find 1930s terraced houses, 1960s and 1970s porch flats, and the occasional newer apartment. It's not a neighbourhood you come to for peace and quiet or greenery, but it does have its own dynamic and a diverse population. Resident Linda describes it aptly: "A mix of young and old, owner-occupied and rental, nationalities." She also calls the neighbourhood noisy and busy, with nuisance from student housing and a permanent smell of drains. Yet she says she enjoys living there.
