Along the Vliet: what living in Wijk 01 means in practice
Wijk 01 lies on the west side of Rijswijk, bordering the Vliet, the canal that connects Rijswijk with Delft and The Hague. That water gives the neighbourhood a quieter, greener character than you would expect from a suburban district. Residents give the district a 9.0 for green space, the highest sub-score, and an overall score of 7.6 on Buurtje.nl. Ruben describes it succinctly as a nice, quiet neighbourhood where public transport is nearby. Resident Tuinman, after almost four years living on Caan van Necklaan, is still satisfied: the street has little through traffic and most neighbours know each other. He does note a caveat about a takeaway on the corner with a new owner, which he says gives a less safe feeling. That honesty matches the safety score of 7.0, the lowest sub-score for the district. More reviews and all district data can be found on the information page for Wijk 01.
In terms of amenities, the district is reasonably self-sufficient. There are primary schools in the immediate vicinity, which partly explains the household composition: households with children form the largest category. The accessibility score of 8.5 is justified: tram and bus connections to The Hague Central are within walking distance, and Rijswijk station is a ten-minute bike ride away. Via the A4 and A13 you are quickly on the motorway. The Hague city centre can be reached by public transport in about twenty minutes. The neighbourhood Cromvliet borders Wijk 01 and has a similar profile, while Leeuwendaal has more detached housing. Those who want to compare with other parts of the municipality can also look at Wijk 02 or Wijk 03.
The population structure confirms the quiet character: the largest age group is 45 to 65 years, the average household income is €54,900, almost €15,000 above the Rijswijk average, and 58% of residents have a high level of education. This translates into a district that looks well-maintained but has no bustling nightlife. Those looking for that are better off in the centre of The Hague. Those looking for peace, green space and good connections are in the right place here. More about the municipality can be found on the website of the municipality of Rijswijk.
For whom is buying in Wijk 01 a good choice?
Wijk 01 mainly attracts families and home-movers who are willing to pay the higher price for peace, green space and a good location. With an average purchase price of over half a million, this is not a starter district, although the lower end of the market around €270,000 still offers some room for a first home. When buying a home in Wijk 01, take into account transfer tax (2% for owner-occupiers), notary costs and possible estate agent fees. Supply is limited and prices are structurally high, so overbidding is not unusual. Those who want to be more flexible can also look at rental homes in Wijk 01 as an alternative.

Auto-translated to English by AIWe've been living on Caan van Necklaan for almost four years now. It's a nice neighbourhood and we know most of the neighbours. Fortunately, there's no racing with cars on Caan van Necklaan. A downside is that there's a takeaway on the corner of the street with a new owner now. That does give an unsafe feeling because there's often a group of men standing in front of the door there. Unfortunately, they make a mess and shout at women.
