Strijp, Residential district in Rijswijk, Netherlands.

Strijp is a residential district in Rijswijk built on what was once farmland and greenhouse fields. Today it consists primarily of terraced houses arranged in a low-density layout that gives the area a spacious, open feel.

The area transformed from agricultural land and greenhouse operations into a residential neighborhood beginning in the 1990s. Development followed planning principles that balanced new housing with the retention of open spaces and the region's landscape character.

The population includes 66 percent Dutch residents and 34 percent international inhabitants, creating a multicultural residential environment in South Holland.

The neighborhood is flat and easy to navigate on foot, with clear pathways throughout. Local shops and parks are nearby, making it simple to reach everyday services without much walking.

Located near Wateringse Veld, the district incorporates elements of traditional Dutch polder landscapes while supporting modern residential developments.
