Living in Eilandenbuurt, Lansingerland
Eilandenbuurt is a quiet, green residential neighbourhood in the western part of Bergschenhoek, part of the municipality of Lansingerland. The neighbourhood owes its name to the street layout: residential streets lie like islands in greenery, surrounded by water and green strips. The housing largely dates from the 1990s and early 2000s, with mainly semi-detached and detached houses on spacious plots. Terraced houses also exist, but they do not define the neighbourhood's character.
Those who live here quickly notice the close-knit and peaceful atmosphere. Kim, a resident, describes it aptly: "Our neighbourhood is a close community: everyone who lives here knows each other, if not directly then through others. Everyone is ready to help keep it safe, and you can see street barbecues in many streets in summer." This social cohesion is also reflected in the resident score: Eilandenbuurt scores a 9.0 for community, the highest of all sub-scores.

Sports clubs and recreational facilities are accessible in the wider Bergschenhoek area.
