Tuschen is a village in the Essequibo Islands-West Demerara Region of Guyana. It is located along the Atlantic Ocean coast. The original name of the village was Tuschen de Vrienden (Dutch for between friends).^[2] During the 20th century, it was a small village. The Tuschen Housing Scheme resulted in a considerable growth,^[3] and is one of the largest housing schemes in Guyana.^[4]

Overview

The village started as sugar plantation Tuschen de Vrienden,^[5] and developed into a small rural community.^[3] In 1890, a railway station was opened in Tuschen on the Demerara-Essequibo railway.^[6] The line operated until 1974.^[7]

In the early 21st century, the Tuschen Housing Scheme was developed to transform the abandoned sugar estates into housing.^[3] Phase one centred around the original village, and phase two extends from the public road to the savannah.^[4]

The village has a primary and secondary school, health centre, many shops and businesses.^[4] Tuschen is planned to be in a Neighbourhood Council (municipality) together with neighbouring Met-en-Meerzorg and Uitvlugt,^[8] however as of April 2021, it has not been established yet, and the villagers have set up a Community Development Council to govern the community.^[4]
