Living in De Hasselt: a working-class neighbourhood with character and rough edges

De Hasselt is not a neighbourhood that sells itself with green avenues and trendy coffee shops. It is an urban, mixed area in the northwest of Tilburg, with a young profile: the largest group of residents is between 25 and 45 years old, and single-person households form the largest household group. This gives the neighbourhood a certain energy, but also challenges. Residents give De Hasselt an average of 6.3 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl. Resident Michael describes it as an "average neighbourhood" and mentions specific annoyances: young people on fatbikes, cars driving against the direction of traffic, and too few parking spaces, partly because many households have two or three cars. These are no small details for those coming home daily. On the neighbourhood page for De Hasselt you will find all resident scores and reviews per category.

In terms of amenities, the neighbourhood is reasonably self-sufficient. In and around De Hasselt there are several primary schools, including in the adjacent areas. For daily shopping, you can go to supermarkets in the area, and Tilburg city centre is within cycling distance. There is green space, although with a score of 6.0, it is not particularly high. De Hasselt borders neighbourhoods such as Kasteel Oost and Kasteel West, where the atmosphere is slightly quieter, as well as the Nassaubuurt and Textielbuurt Oost. Depending on the street, the character can vary greatly per part of the neighbourhood.

In terms of accessibility, the neighbourhood scores a 6.0 from residents. Tilburg Centraal is easily reachable by bike, and via the N261 and the A58 and A65 motorways, you are quickly out of the city. Several bus lines connect De Hasselt with the centre and other parts of the city. Those working in Breda, Den Bosch or Eindhoven can easily commute from Tilburg. Municipal information on accessibility and urban development can be found on the website of the municipality of Tilburg. For a broader comparison within the city, neighbourhoods such as Armhoef or Jeruzalem are also worth a look.

For whom is a home in De Hasselt a good choice?

Buying a home in De Hasselt mainly appeals to starters and young dual-income earners who want to live in Tilburg without paying top dollar. The average selling price of over €349,000 is realistic for the Tilburg market, but don't forget the additional costs: transfer tax (2% for non-starters), notary fees and any renovations add up quickly. The supply is not always plentiful, so those who are serious would do well to act quickly. If buying is not the step now, then the page on rental homes in De Hasselt offers a good alternative to get to know the neighbourhood first.
