- Quiet
- Exclusive

The Forepark is first and foremost a green business park on the eastern edge of The Hague, with a small, exclusive residential enclave and its own RandstadRail stop. Here you live spaciously and detached, among the greenery and a stone’s throw from the motorway.
The character of the Forepark
The Forepark is a special case in this guide: not a genuine residential district, but first and foremost a green business park on the eastern edge of The Hague. Even so, a small, exclusive group lives here — in spacious, detached homes among the greenery — and the area has its own RandstadRail stop.
Anyone living here opts for peace, space and excellent accessibility, with the business character of the park in the background.
Location and surroundings
The Forepark lies on the eastern edge of The Hague, between Leidschenveen, Ypenburg and the A4/A12. Its own RandstadRail stop and the direct motorway connection make it excellently reachable.
Living and the property market
The limited housing supply consists of spacious detached and semi-detached homes set in greenery. Because of the small size of the residential enclave, supply is scarce, in the higher segment.
Please note: the Forepark has very few residents, so figures “per 1,000 residents” (as for safety) are statistically skewed — the area is mainly business-oriented. The market prices quoted are indicative; for a specific home, request a valuation.
Who is the Forepark right for?
The Forepark suits anyone who wants spacious, green and quiet living with excellent accessibility, and who does not mind the proximity of a business park. For those seeking amenities, neighbourhood life and buzz, the surrounding residential districts of Leidschenveen and Ypenburg are a more logical choice.

Why are the safety figures per resident so high?
Because very few people live here, while there are many businesses and passers-by. As a result the number of crimes per 1,000 residents is statistically skewed and not representative of the residential enclave itself.

Mainly spacious detached and semi-detached homes set in greenery. It is a small, exclusive residential area within an otherwise business-oriented zone.
