Living in Voorburg Noord: green and quiet, but not uniformly well-maintained
Voorburg Noord is a post-war residential neighbourhood distinguished by relatively abundant greenery and a peaceful atmosphere. Residents on the neighbourhood page of Voorburg Noord give the area an average rating of 7.2 out of 10. Notably high scores are for greenery (8.5) and education (8.5), while safety (8.0) and community spirit (7.5) are also rated positively. Residents are less enthusiastic about accessibility, housing and the neighbourhood's appearance. One resident candidly writes that the housing stock is monotonous and poorly maintained, with many homes having a low energy label. The same resident also mentions litter on the streets and in front gardens, and parking nuisance from commercial vans belonging to people who do not live on the street. These are not minor irritations, and it is fair to weigh them if you are considering buying a home here.
In terms of amenities, the neighbourhood is reasonably self-sufficient. There are several primary schools in and around the area, which partly explains the high education score. For daily groceries, you can go to the In de Bogaard shopping centre in nearby Rijswijk or to supermarkets towards the centre of Voorburg. The Vlietland area and the banks of the Vliet offer green walking and cycling routes within a short distance. Sports clubs for football, tennis and swimming are available in the immediate vicinity.
Accessibility scores a 6.0 from residents, which is understandable. Voorburg Noord does not have its own NS railway station, but station Voorburg 't Loo and station Laan van NOI are within cycling distance. Via the Randstadrail, you can quickly reach Den Haag Centraal or Zoetermeer. By car, you can access the motorway network via the A4 and A12. The sub-neighbourhoods Voorburg Noord north and Voorburg Noord south differ in character and offerings, so it pays to look at both separately. If you want to compare more broadly, you can also look at neighbourhoods such as Prinsenhof or 't Lien en De Rietvink, which offer a different living environment within the same municipality. More information about municipal policy and facilities can be found on the website of the municipality of Leidschendam-Voorburg.
For whom is buying in Voorburg Noord a realistic option?
Voorburg Noord mainly appeals to first-time buyers and young families who want to combine buying a home in Voorburg Noord with a relatively lower entry price compared to the rest of the municipality. The large group of 25-45 year olds in the neighbourhood reflects this. However, do take into account additional costs such as transfer tax (2% for non-first-time buyers, 0% for first-time buyers up to €510,000) and notary fees. Many homes have a lower energy label, so a structural survey is strongly recommended. If you prefer to rent first or want to remain flexible, you can also look at rental homes in Voorburg Noord.
