Huygenspark, Den Haag
NeighbourhoodThis studio on the Rijswijkseplein sits in Huygenspark, a neighbourhood that has clearly been on the up in recent years. At 32 m² it is a compact home, and the rent of €704 a month is well below the average for studios in Den Haag. Given the size and the social housing status, the price is keen compared with the wider rental market here.
One resident describes Huygenspark as a "green, quiet and accessible neighbourhood", noting that "Huygenspark was renovated not long ago and is a vibrant park for all ages". They add that "accessibility is top-notch; you're quickly in the city centre, quickly at the train station, and quickly on the tram towards Scheveningen or other places in The Hague". Based on this single review, the impression is of a well-connected area with plenty of everyday amenities. The neighbourhood is densely populated, with many single-person households, and the Huygenspark neighbourhood has a distinctly urban feel.
For daily shopping, an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with a Jumbo a couple of streets away. A larger supermarket is a five-minute walk. Schools are a bit further out, with the nearest primary school, De Parachute, about a ten-minute walk away. The train station is also a ten-minute walk, which makes getting around straightforward. The municipality of Den Haag offers plenty beyond the immediate area too.

How residents experience their neighbourhood
Over the years, this neighbourhood has improved in my opinion. Huygenspark was renovated not long ago and is a vibrant park for all ages. The Huygenspark neighbourhood is an extension of the notorious Schilderswijk district. But you don't notice any of that here; up to the level of Holland Spoor station, everything is perfectly fine. Accessibility is top-notch; you're quickly in the city centre, quickly at the train station, and quickly on the tram towards Scheveningen or other places in The Hague. Plenty of amenities; everything you need can be found in the neighbourhood.
