Sion and surroundings: green, quiet yet close to the city

Wijk 10 includes the neighbourhoods Sion, Elsenburg, Haantje and Pasgeld. They are quiet, green-looking neighbourhoods on the edge of Rijswijk, with wide streets and relatively lots of greenery. Residents give the neighbourhood an 8.1 on the Wijk 10 neighbourhood page, with notably high scores for greenery (8.5) and sense of community (8.3). Olivia, who has lived here since 2018, writes: "It's a nice neighbourhood with enough playgrounds and good roads for rollerblading. The people are all very friendly too. As a woman, I dare to walk the streets here in the evening, so safety is fine." Kevin confirms that feeling: "I've always felt safe here as a child, the roads are good and there's really nothing bad here."

In terms of amenities, there are several primary schools in and around the neighbourhood and a community centre that is actively used by residents of all ages. Corrie describes the neighbourhood as mixed: "From young families, elderly people and people with a disability. That feels pleasant. The shops are also very nice. We also have a small community centre that is used frequently." She also mentions a downside: dealers who are regularly present in the park. That is a point to be honest about. The accessibility score of 7.8 is good, but resident Anouschka adds a caveat: the neighbourhood is difficult to reach without your own transport. Public transport is limited and for many destinations you rely on a bike or car. By car, via the A4 and A13, you are quickly in The Hague or Delft. Cyclists reach the centre of Rijswijk or Rijswijk station in a quarter of an hour. Rijswijk station offers connections to The Hague Central and Delft.

The population composition reflects the residential character: the largest group of residents is between 25 and 45 years old (2,745 out of 7,125 residents), there are relatively many families with children (1,420 households) and the education level is high (60%). The average income of €54,700 is significantly above the Rijswijk average of €40,300. Living in Wijk 10 clearly attracts a specific audience: dual-income couples, young families and movers seeking space without completely letting go of the city.

For whom is buying in Wijk 10 a good choice?

Buying in Wijk 10 is mainly interesting for families and movers looking for a larger home with a garden in a quiet environment. With an average transaction price of over €800,000, this is not a starter neighbourhood. Take into account additional costs such as transfer tax (2% for non-starters), notary fees and possible valuation costs. Supply is limited and homes sell quickly, so preparation pays off. Those considering buying an apartment in Wijk 10 will find less choice here than in other parts of Rijswijk. Those still orienting themselves or with a lower budget can also look at rental homes in Wijk 10 as a temporary alternative.
