Living in Dijkpolder, Midden-Delfland
Dijkpolder is not an ordinary residential area. The neighbourhood lies in the open polder landscape of Midden-Delfland, wedged between Maasland and the rural area towards Delft and Vlaardingen. Those who live here consciously choose peace, space and a rural character. The development is relatively sparse, with detached houses and larger plots setting the tone. It is not a compact street neighbourhood, but a scattered community in a green environment.
The neighbourhood score for Dijkpolder stands at 7.0 based on resident reviews. Notable are the high scores for green space (9.0) and safety (9.0), which fit well with the character of the neighbourhood. Beauty scores an 8.0 and housing also an 8.0. Accessibility scores lower at 3.0, and that is an honest signal. Public transport is limited in this part of Midden-Delfland. A car of your own is not a luxury here but a necessity. The nearest station is Maassluis or Schiedam, depending on the direction. Bus connections exist, but the frequency leaves something to be desired. Jessica Manhoef, a resident who gave the neighbourhood a 7.0, writes: "Public transport could also use some improvement." That is a recurring sentiment from people who live here and warn that you cannot manage without a car here.
The same resident describes Dijkpolder as "a mixed neighbourhood with new arrivals", which matches the demographic data. The largest age group is 45 to 65 years (300 residents), followed by those aged 65 and over (285). There are also families with children, who form the largest household type. This makes it a neighbourhood with a mix of established residents and newcomers, which explains the community score of 6.0: there is connection, but it is not a close-knit village community as you sometimes find in smaller settlements.
Facilities are scarce in the neighbourhood itself. For daily shopping, schools and sports clubs, you rely on nearby Maasland, the central village of the district. Maasland has a primary school, a small supermarket and various sports facilities. For a wider range, you drive to Vlaardingen or Schiedam, both about ten to fifteen minutes away. Facilities in Dijkpolder itself score a 5.0 among residents, and that is realistic: the neighbourhood offers nature and space, not a shopping street.
If you compare Dijkpolder with neighbourhoods like Ter Lucht or Gaag-Maasland, it stands out that Dijkpolder has the most rural character. Also Verspreide huizen Dijkpolder and Verspreide huizen Duifpolder en omgeving are neighbourhoods in the same rural area, with a similar open character. Those who want more village amenities while still having a green environment would be better off looking at homes for sale in Maasland or comparing with Schipluiden.

Varied but generally good.. we have many loose dogs here, something needs to be done about that, but otherwise it's nice and the communication is okay. Also regarding public transport, there is room for improvement. Ground containers, who thought that a full rubbish bag barely fits through the flap? A national dilemma, but in a village in the municipality of Midden Delfland it's very annoying when the waste blows across the polder.
