This studio on St Rochushofje sits in the lively Rochusbuurt, right in the centre of Eindhoven. At 40 m² it's compact but efficient, and the rent of €743 is remarkably low, 63% below the neighbourhood average of €1,996. That makes it a keen option for a single person or student. For context, studios in Eindhoven vary widely in price, so this one stands out.
The Rochusbuurt is a dense, urban area with a very strong address density (3,881 addresses per km²). It's home to many young adults, 44% of residents are between 25 and 45, and a high share of single-person households (49%). The neighbourhood has a lively, central feel. There are no resident reviews available, so the picture here is based on CBS data. The Rochusbuurt neighbourhood is known for its mix of shops, cafes and historic streets.

About St Rochushofje 18, Eindhoven
Yes, it's very competitive. The average rent in the Rochusbuurt is €1,996, so this studio is 63% below that. It's also a social housing property, which explains the low price. Given the central location and the fact that homes in this neighbourhood rent out in an average of 21 days, it's likely to attract interest quickly.
The energy label is B, which is an official registration from EP-Online. Label B is quite efficient, so you can expect reasonable energy costs. The label doesn't tell you about the specific insulation or heating system, but it's a good starting point.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride.
Excellent. The Jumbo supermarket is just 43 metres away, so you can pop out for bread and milk in seconds. Ekoplaza is 371 metres away, and Albert Heijn is 657 metres. There are also many restaurants within walking distance (the nearest is 300 m).
The Rochusbuurt is a central, urban area with a high address density, so it's lively rather than quiet. The street itself is a hofje (courtyard), which may offer some peace, but you'll be surrounded by the buzz of the city centre.
On average, homes in the Rochusbuurt are rented out within 21 days. That's a fast market, so if you're interested, it's worth acting promptly. The low rent of this studio makes it even more likely to go quickly.

How residents experience their district
I've lived here since 1994 and don't want to leave for as long as my life allows. The living comfort is sublime, and in summer you feel like you're in Italy or Greece because of the white houses. It's fairly safe to live here; there's neighbourhood watch and residents keep a close eye on everything. It's a great privilege to live here. All shops and healthcare facilities are within walking distance, as is the centre of Eindhoven. I want to keep living here!!!
Auto-translated to English by AII've known this neighbourhood in Eindhoven for a while, but I've been living here myself for a few months now. I moved here from a less pleasant area and the difference is noticeable. Apart from occasional nuisance from motorbikes and partying people from Stratum, this neighbourhood is really great. Lots of greenery, close to the station and the Jumbo, it's very nice.
Auto-translated to English by AII think the neighbourhood is beautiful because it is very green. There is also one very nice playground with a dog poo field and a log cabin with fun activities.

How residents experience their municipality
Nice quiet neighbourhood, all amenities nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet, no nuisance, sometimes difficult neighbours, otherwise everyone is very much to themselves but still always curious about what others are doing. In terms of nature, it is very extensive and there are many opportunities.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a beautiful, quiet, clean and spacious neighbourhood. I experience the area as safe and child-friendly. In terms of noise, it's pleasantly quiet: you hardly hear any planes, at most occasionally a military helicopter during the day. There are good schools and the neighbourhood is very international, with a nice mix of locals and knowledge migrants. This is also due to its favourable location relative to the High Tech Campus, the ASML campus and ISE. Accessibility is good, with several bus lines (401, 402, 403 and 20) and fast arterial roads towards the centre and Best. In the centre of Meerhoven there are three supermarkets (Lidl, Albert Heijn and Jumbo), a GP, dentists and childcare. By bike you can reach Strijp-S in about 10 minutes and the centre of Eindhoven in 15 to 20 minutes. In addition, there is a lot of greenery, with beautiful walking routes along the golf course and through Park Meerland. A downside is that it's not very lively: there are few activities and hardly any catering facilities. All in all, I think it's one of the better neighbourhoods in Eindhoven. The centre is easily accessible by bike and it's a good choice if you want to live quietly, without being too far from the city. If you're looking for a cosy, lively neighbourhood with lots of nightlife, Meerhoven is probably less suitable.
Auto-translated to English by AIA quiet neighbourhood, with nice people. Small playground, large grass field, lots of trees and bushes, many shops and schools nearby. Live close to a beautiful park with a big playground. Near GP and hospital. Neighbourhood is safe and clean. We really enjoy living here.
Auto-translated to English by AII'm constantly asking for advice. Improving the pavements and removing weeds!!! Rembrantplein and 2 other streets really need to be cleaned.! Remco van Wij Eidhoven and I have also spoken to Trudo, but they won't do anything about it.! It's not their responsibility.!! Will you please do something about this? Vaartbroek also got new paving stones. Thank you for listening.

Auto-translated to English by AIUnfortunately, the neighbourhood is deteriorating. A lot of rubbish is dumped and the police often have to come. Education: there are schools nearby and it's green enough. Shops are conveniently close and the houses have just been completely renovated.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople are becoming increasingly distant. More and more (sometimes) unjustified urgent cases. Not good. The neighbourhood is being taken over by too many nationalities, who don't seek contact. Parking problems due to charging stations.
