Discover the most popular neighbourhoods for expats in and around The Hague

The Hague is not only the political capital city of the Netherlands, but is also a beautiful mixture of neighbourhoods where cultures, history and nationalities come together to live in the 'hustle and bustle' of the city. For you as an expat moving to this vibrant place, it is important to choose the perfect place to live that suits your lifestyle, family and needs. In this blog, we will tell you more about the most popular places for expats in and around The Hague, and why they are so attractive. 

The Statenkwartier: International atmosphere and proximity to international organisations

The shortest possible traveltime to the office is a musthave for most expats. Especially when you come to work in a new city. For expats who are in the Netherlands temporarily or for a longer period and work for an international organisation (such as the International Court of Justice), the Statenkwartier is the perfect place. This neighbourhood exudes an international atmosphere and offers beautiful townhouses and flats. With embassies and international schools, as well as many shops and restaurants nearby, you will feel right at home.

 

Archipel neighbourhood: historic splendour and modern comforts

If you are an expat who prefers the historical charm of Dutch architecture combined with fine modern amenities, the Archipel neighbourhood is a top choice. Here there you will find plenty of choice of beautifully renovated townhouses and flats, surrounded by stately squares and within walking distance of the city centre, shops and restaurants.

 

Voorburg: Ideal for expat families

For expat families looking for a quiet area with great schools and green parks, Voorburg is an excellent option. With children, it is nice to live outside the hustle and bustle of the city, with international schools and other amenities nearby, of course. Voorburg is adjacent to The Hague, so the city centre is also within easy reach. 

 

Wassenaar: Luxury and peace & quiet

Wassenaar is the ultimate destination for expats looking for accommodation in high end real estate. Wassenaar is known for its exclusive villas, surrounded by lots of green and lush gardens. Wassenaar is the ideal escape from the city but still has easy access to The Hague and international schools.

 

Scheveningen: life at the beach 

For those longing to live near the sea and the beach, Scheveningen offers a vibrant coastal community. Scheveningen's beach and harbour are a getaway for many and living in this area is a true privilege. With the many restaurants and shops in the area, it is a pleasant place to be and Scheveningen is easily accessible by public transport from The Hague city centre.
