Living in Kruiden Zuid, Teylingen
Kruiden Zuid is a quiet residential area on the eastern side of Voorhout, laid out around wide streets with plenty of greenery in between. The neighbourhood owes its name to the streets named after herbs and plants, a detail that immediately says something about its design: thoughtful, clear, not anonymous. Resident Anne-Phine Jongeneel describes it aptly: "My neighbourhood is quiet and green, with a friendly atmosphere and neighbours who greet each other." She adds that people greet each other on the street, even if they don't know each other personally. That sense of community is something you don't always find in a newer expansion area, but here it has apparently grown.
The homes were largely built between the 1980s and early 1990s. You will mainly find terraced houses and semi-detached houses, with the occasional detached house in the quieter corners of the neighbourhood. The gardens are generally spacious by Dutch standards, and the area has a few pleasant green strips that separate the neighbourhoods without isolating them. The resident score of 8.4 out of 10 is supported by high sub-scores for safety (9.0) and cleanliness (9.0), which you also see when cycling through: little vandalism, well-maintained pavements, no litter on the streets.
For daily shopping, you hardly need to leave the neighbourhood. Within cycling distance, you will find a supermarket in the nearby centre of Voorhout, which also has a pharmacy, bakery and a handful of shops. Primary schools are within walking distance, making the neighbourhood attractive for families with young children. This is also reflected in the figures: households with children form the largest household group, and the 45-65 age category is the most strongly represented, indicating a neighbourhood where people stay for a long time.
In terms of accessibility, the neighbourhood scores a 9.0. Voorhout station is a short bike ride away and offers direct connections to Leiden and Haarlem. Via the N208 and the nearby junction with the A44, you are quickly on the motorway. Cyclists are well catered for: the flat bulb polder landscape around makes Kruiden Zuid also excellently connected by bike to surrounding towns such as Sassenheim and Lisse. For those who work in the Randstad and want peace at home, this offers a good balance.
Compared to neighbouring communities such as Kruiden Noord and the Bloemenbuurt, Kruiden Zuid has a slightly quieter and more mature character. The Vissenbuurt and Schouten offer similar living comfort but with different street scenes.

My experience with my neighbourhood is generally very positive. It's a place where I feel at home, especially because there is a quiet and relaxed atmosphere. What I appreciate most is that people greet each other on the street here — even if you don't know each other personally, there is still a sense of connection. The neighbourhood itself is green and well-arranged, with many trees and playgrounds for children. On summer evenings you often hear the soft murmur of people sitting outside, and sometimes street barbecues or small-scale neighbourhood activities are organised. Of course, there are occasional annoyances, such as noise nuisance or parking problems, but for me they don't outweigh the positive feeling I have about living here. My neighbourhood feels like an extension of my home: familiar, friendly and liveable.
