I have lived in this neighbourhood since birth. From a young age, I have experienced the neighbourhood as perfect to grow up in!
Auto-translated to English by AII grew up there, made a lot of memories. I live right behind my primary school, and my secondary school was only a fifteen-minute bike ride away. Need groceries? Just pop around the corner to Lidl. Furniture? Check out Jysk around the corner. Fancy some chips? A few streets away there's a snack bar, and next to it a Chinese takeaway. Want to go out? You're close enough to walk to Tilburg city centre without having to live in all that hustle and bustle. Maybe just a quiet walk? Go for a stroll along the canal, perfect for pets too. Plenty of trees and grass nearby. And, hopefully you'll never need it, in case of emergency you don't have to worry about the difficulty of the roads.
