Living in Schrijversbuurt, Eindhoven
Schrijversbuurt is a quiet, largely residential neighbourhood in the southeast of Eindhoven, located within the Rozenknopje district. The streets are named after writers and poets, giving the neighbourhood a unique identity that you will find in few other Eindhoven districts. The streetscape is characterised by terraced houses and detached homes from the 1960s and 1970s, supplemented by a limited number of apartments. The buildings are predominantly low-rise, giving the neighbourhood a quieter and less urban character than the city centre.
Residents particularly appreciate the tranquillity. Dolores, who rates the neighbourhood a 7.9, writes: "It is a nice and safe neighbourhood. I never have to worry about my safety and it is not a busy neighbourhood. Few cars drive through, so it is quite quiet." That sense of safety and low traffic levels is also reflected in the subscores: safety scores an 8.0 and accessibility even a 10.0. Green space is the only point of criticism: Dolores indicates she would like to see more nature, and the green score of 5.0 confirms that. Anyone expecting large parks or many trees on the street should adjust their expectations.
For daily shopping, you hardly need to leave the neighbourhood. There is an Albert Heijn within walking distance, a bakery, several restaurants and a PostNL point. The amenities score of 9.0 reflects this well. For a larger range of shops or cultural facilities, Eindhoven city centre is the place to go, and it is easily accessible. By bike, you can reach the centre in about ten to fifteen minutes. The neighbourhood also has good bus connections to the centre and Eindhoven NS station, from where you can quickly travel to Amsterdam, The Hague or Breda. For motorists, the connection to the A2 and A67 is relatively quick via the Kennedylaan or the Ring.
