Bergschenhoek (Dutch pronunciation: [ˌbɛr(ə)xsə(n)ˈɦuk] ⓘ) is a town and former municipality in the municipality of Lansingerland, in the province of South Holland, Netherlands.
Due to the continuing influx of people to Bergschenhoek, it is in a constant state of expansion and is now predominantly a commuter town as most of its residents work in the neighbouring cities, such as The Hague and Rotterdam.
The town had a large population increase since 1990, because of the Vinex-plans.
The name of the town is derived from a district of the nearby city of Rotterdam, Hillegersberg.
On a corner of this road ('hoek' in Dutch) a settlement grew, leading to a village.
