no they are not!
As a matter of fact: the Dutch are specimen people that God sent on this earth just to make us see how imperfect we are... as the Dutch people are so much good looking (both female and mela) and so much tolerant with so high sense of humor..
I pity on myselft for not being born as Dutchman.
God Bless the Netherlands and its people

The old generation definitely was, cleaning all the time, make everything nice and shiny. My mother is 77 and still cleans everything herself because 'imagine that the doctor needs to come and the place is not spotless!'
Anyway, I completely threw that one overboard haha... and i'm not the only pig around. So no, in this time, not all Dutch people are clean freaks!

Dutch people are usually very clean, I am Dutch and a total clean freak, my American husband became a clean freak too, he even takes my coffee cup away before I am finished with it and it is washed and back in the cupboard before I miss it.

My mother was Dutch and yes she was a clean freak but the bottom line is when you are raised to appreciate everything you have and earned you take pride in showing it....down to washing the front of your house down and then the sidewalk and make sure your windows are as clean as possible and you look neat and tidy!!!!!!!!!

I lived in The Netherlands for 5 years and I can say, yes, they are clean freaks. Most families have a "maid" to help in the cleaning were as in America that type of help is only reserved for the upper middle class and above.
You could eat off most of the floors of the houses I would go to.

Nope. At primary school I learned that Dutch housewives are so clean that they even sweep the pavement outside their house. When I was 13 I went to Amsterdam. A man walked into a urinal next to a canal to take a piss. Two kids paddled a kayak along the canal and were greeted by a stream of widdle.

No, like in every other country you have people who are clean freaks and who are not. Personally I find it important to have a clean toilet and a clean cooking area in the kitchen. The rest I clean wen I feel like it. But I know people who spend almost every day by cleaning a part of their house. I personally have better things to do.

Clean freaks, us? Formerly maybe, nowadays not that much anymore. And certainly not everybody has a "maid", absolutely not. Only the wealthy upper class maybe, and the aged people, they get help, but I myself never ever have had a maid, I wish I had! :-)) Like in every other country there are people who clean their house and there are people who don't.
