What does a home in Oud-Strijp cost?
The owner-occupied market in Oud-Strijp is relatively small: only 29% of the more than 8,950 homes are owner-occupied, the rest are rental. This makes supply limited and competition fierce. The average WOZ value is €350,000, just below the Eindhoven average of €360,000. But don't be misled: actual transaction prices are significantly higher. In the past twelve months, 76 homes changed hands for an average of €507,026, with a range from €219,000 to €1,395,000. The average living area in those sales was 99 m². Apartments dominate the supply, especially in newer complexes around Strijp S and in the Schouwbroek neighbourhood. Single-family homes are mainly found in the older streets towards Philipsdorp and Engelsbergen.

Living in Oud-Strijp: hip, village-like and everything within cycling distance
Oud-Strijp scores an 8.0 from residents on the Oud-Strijp neighbourhood page, and that score is not surprising when you walk around here. The neighbourhood combines urban energy with a surprisingly village-like feel. Resident Joep (8.5/10) sums it up succinctly: "You have everything nearby: nice parks, forest, nice terraces, coffee shops and restaurants, and Strijp is a hip place for young people." Carola, who has lived there since 1988, emphasises the social side: on her street everyone knows each other, there are neighbourhood barbecues and a street app. "Almost everything I need is within walking or cycling distance," she writes. That long-term living satisfaction says a lot about the stability of the neighbourhood.
In terms of amenities, you are well catered for. Supermarkets such as Jumbo and Lidl are within walking or cycling distance. Woensel shopping centre is not far, and the centre of Eindhoven can be reached within ten minutes by bike. Education scores notably high among residents (9.0), with primary schools such as De Tempel and Stedelijk College Eindhoven in the immediate vicinity. Henri Dunantpark and Stadswandelpark provide green space, although residents rate the neighbourhood average on this point (7.4). Accessibility is strong: bus lines towards Eindhoven Centraal station stop within a short walk, and via the Sterrenlaan and Aalsterweg you are quickly on the A2 and A270. Eindhoven Strijp-S station is a few minutes' bike ride away and offers direct trains to Tilburg, Den Bosch and Amsterdam. More information about municipal facilities and plans can be found on the website of the municipality of Eindhoven.
To be fair: the neighbourhood also has points of attention. Resident Aiden mentions nuisance from loitering youths at some apartment complexes, and the cleanliness of public spaces scores a 7.4, not particularly high. The neighbourhood is in transition, with new construction and densification around Strijp S causing construction traffic and change. Yet satisfaction prevails. Resident E. simply calls it "a safe neighbourhood where very little happens", and the safety score of 8.2 confirms that picture.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe fact that I've been living in the same house for over 36 years already indicates that I really enjoy it here. By now I know everyone on my street. We also hold neighbourhood barbecues, etc. There's a street app and everyone is there for each other when needed. With the arrival of a new district (Strijp-S) adjacent to our street, there has been much more hustle and bustle in the neighbourhood over the past 15 years. I experience this as very pleasant. A downside of the neighbourhood is that the small brown pubs are disappearing one by one. This is not only the case here, but across the whole country. A real shame.

Almost everything I need is within walking or cycling distance. And the bus stop is also very close. A plus point is that with the arrival of the adjacent new neighbourhood Strijp-S, there's more and more to do in the area. For example, DDW is an annual recurring event that is highly represented at Strijp-S, which I always look forward to. Even though I no longer belong to the target group (60+), there is plenty to do throughout the year that I enjoy going to. The only pity is that all the small local pubs are disappearing one by one. The prices of the hospitality industry at Strijp-S are very high.
