Living in Voorburg West noord, Leidschendam-Voorburg

Voorburg West noord is a quiet, largely residential neighbourhood on the west side of Voorburg, bordering The Hague. The streets are clear, the buildings mainly consist of post-war terraced houses and semi-detached houses from the 1950s to 1970s, with the occasional newer apartment complex. It is not a neighbourhood that stands out for spectacular architecture, but rather for a certain peace and recognisability that many residents appreciate.

The largest age group is 45 to 65 years, and households with children form the largest household group. You notice this in the neighbourhood: there are relatively few catering establishments or entertainment options, but basic amenities are well in order. Primary schools are within cycling distance, and for daily shopping you can go to the shops along the Laan van Nieuw Oost-Indië or the shopping area around the Koningin Julianabaan. For a larger range of shops, the centre of Voorburg or the Stadshart of Zoetermeer are easily accessible.

Green space is present, but the neighbourhood is not excessively leafy. Resident Megteld Damming described it aptly: "Quiet and nice neighbourhood, could do with a few more trees." She gives the neighbourhood an 8.6 and also mentions a concern shared by more residents: plans from The Hague that could affect liveability and peace. The proximity of the Hague municipal border is a factor to consider when making your choice.

Accessibility is a clear plus point. Station Voorburg is a short bike ride away and offers a direct connection to The Hague Central in a few minutes and to Leiden in about twenty minutes. Via the A4 and A12 you are quickly on the motorway, and several bus lines connect the neighbourhood to the wider public transport network. The partial score for accessibility among residents is 9.0 out of 10, confirming that picture.

Safety even scores a 10.0, which is remarkably high. That fits the character of the neighbourhood: it is not a busy thoroughfare, the streets are clear and there is a sense of social control that residents appreciate. The community score of 9.0 indicates that neighbours know each other and are involved in the neighbourhood. Amenities score a 6.0, which is lower, corresponding to the picture that the neighbourhood itself has limited shopping and catering facilities.
