## About

Eindhoven is a mid-sized tech hub (240,000 people) in southern Netherlands, known for Philips legacy and modern innovation culture. Living costs are moderate (€900–1,200/month). The city has a young, entrepreneurial feel—maker spaces, design studios, tech startups everywhere. It's not as touristy as the west; it's a working, building city.
