Living in Hertogenwijk, Tiel
Hertogenwijk is a compact, predominantly social housing neighbourhood in the heart of Tiel centre, with a distinct working-class character. Over 67% of the housing stock is owned by a housing association, which gives the neighbourhood a recognisable stamp: many uniform terraced houses from the 1950s and 1960s, narrow front gardens, and streets that look alike. Yet the neighbourhood has something that larger, newer neighbourhoods often lack: strong social cohesion.

But in the evening there is quite a lot of nuisance in the park. Cans that aren't thrown away, sometimes there is glass lying around. People cycle in the dog walking park. But overall it is a nice neighbourhood." That honesty says a lot: Hertogenwijk is not a problem neighbourhood, but it does have rough edges when it gets dark. Safety scores 7.0, and cleanliness 6.0, indicating that the public space in some places needs attention.
