'''Tynaarlo''' ({{IPA|nl|tiˈnaːrloː|pron|Nl-Tynaarlo.oga}}; [[Gronings dialect|Gronings]]: ''Tynaorl'') is a [[village]] and [[Municipalities of the Netherlands|municipality]] in the Northeastern [[Netherlands]]. Although it is located in the [[Provinces of the Netherlands|province]] of [[Drenthe]], many of its communities serve as suburbs of the neighbouring city of [[Groningen (city)|Groningen]], capital of the [[Groningen (province)|eponymous province]]. In 2019, the municipality of Tynaarlo had a population of 33,698.
== History ==
The municipality of Tynaarlo was established in 1998 as the merger of the former municipalities of [[Eelde]], [[Vries, Drenthe|Vries]] and [[Zuidlaren]]; it was supposed to retain the name of the latter, but after the two first voiced their discontent, the name of the smaller central village of Tynaarlo was chosen.
