📋 The Bottom Line
Eindhoven is the Netherlands' tech hub and one of the most modern cities in the country. Nearly everything is new or recently renovated, meaning excellent accessibility. The city is completely flat, sidewalks are wide and smooth, and the Strijp-S creative district is a model of modern urban design. It lacks the historic charm of Amsterdam but makes up for it with hassle-free stroller navigation. Philips' legacy means the city thinks in terms of design and functionality.
