Renting in Eindhoven: how the market works

Eindhoven has transformed from a factory town into a design hotspot. Strijp-S, the former Philips site, is now a creative district full of lofts, and during Dutch Design Week the whole city buzzes. The centre and Stratum offer nightlife, while Woensel, Tongelre and Gestel are quieter and more family-friendly.

Of the six big cities, Eindhoven is the most affordable. In the centre reckon on €975 for a studio and €1,250 for two rooms; in the outer districts €850 and €1,075. Three rooms head towards €1,550 and four-plus-room family homes around €1,950.

The Brainport region attracts international knowledge workers, engineers at ASML, Philips and the High Tech Campus, plus TU/e students. That influx is so fast that free-sector supply structurally lags, despite plenty of new-build on the city's edges, so every minute counts.
