Living in Stationskwartier, Rijswijk

Stationskwartier is a neighbourhood that lives up to its name. Rijswijk station is within walking distance, and that strongly colours the character of the district: it is an urban, well-connected neighbourhood where residents consciously choose accessibility over tranquillity. The buildings largely consist of multi-family homes and porch flats from the 1960s and 1970s, supplemented by some newer apartment complexes added in recent decades around the station area. Terraced houses are also present, but they are a minority. The streets around Prinses Beatrixlaan and the station area give the neighbourhood a functional, sometimes somewhat grey character, but residents appreciate the direct connection with the rest of the region.
