Living in Driehoek, Albrandswaard
Driehoek is a quiet, largely green residential neighbourhood on the edge of Portland, the district that connects Albrandswaard with the Nieuwe Maas. The neighbourhood's name refers to the triangular structure of the development, wedged between through roads and green strips. The homes mainly date from the 1970s and 1980s: solid terraced houses and semi-detached houses with a garden, but also a number of detached homes on the quieter side streets. The streetscape is orderly, the gardens are well-maintained and the neighbourhood looks cared for.
In terms of amenities, Driehoek is self-sufficient for daily shopping. Primary schools are within easy reach in the immediate vicinity, which matches the demographic composition of the neighbourhood: families with children form the largest household group (525 households), and the 45 to 65 age group is the most strongly represented. Resident Debor describes it aptly: the neighbourhood is quiet, but it can be busy, and the schools are generally good. For more extensive shops, sports facilities and catering, Rhoon or Poortugaal are a short drive away. The municipality of Albrandswaard provides up-to-date information on local amenities and municipal services via albrandswaard.nl.

Resident Iwan gives the neighbourhood a 7.9 and writes honestly: "It can sometimes be chaotic, things are often stolen, windows smashed, etc. But we do have a group app for our neighbourhood so we can keep an eye on each other and help/support."
