About this guide

What is this?

This guide describes the character, history, architecture, amenities and property market of every neighbourhood in The Hague, backed up with objective figures. The goal is simple: to inform anyone getting to know the city — or looking for a home here — honestly and thoroughly.

Who makes it?

This guide is an initiative by siteboosting.nl, the company of Stefan Hendriks, a specialist in online visibility. We deliberately created it as a hands-on example of the principle “practice what you preach”: rather than just talking about how authoritative, trustworthy content works, we show it here ourselves. No estate-agent spin and no sales talk — just carefully researched information.

Where do the figures come from?

The facts and figures on the neighbourhood pages come straight from official, open sources. We store them as a dated snapshot, so they remain verifiable and easy to cite:

• Demographics, housing and proximity of amenities — CBS (Statistics Netherlands), Key figures for districts and neighbourhoods 2025 (retrieved on 1 July 2026).
• Registered crime — Dutch Police, registered crimes (annual figures 2025) (retrieved on 1 July 2026).

A few honest caveats

• CBS and the police group some districts together (for example “Geuzen- en Statenkwartier” or “Mariahoeve en Marlot”). Those districts then share the same figures; this is always noted with the source.
• Any property prices shown are indicative and meant to give a sense of the market. A home’s actual value depends on location, size and condition.
• The number of crimes per 1,000 residents can be skewed in areas with many visitors or large recreational zones; that’s why we also show the absolute numbers.
