Kamerik-Mijzijde, also just called Mijzijde, is a hamlet in the Dutch province of Utrecht. It is a part of the municipality of Woerden, and lies about 4 km north of the city of Woerden. It consists of a number of farms some distance west from the villages of Kamerik and Kanis.

Between 1818 and 1857, Kamerik-Mijzijde was the name of a separate municipality, covering the western half of the later municipality of Kamerik.[2]

It was first mentioned in 1427 as Camerick mitter nyezyde, and means "side of the Meye (river)".[3] Mijzijde is not a statistical entity,[4] and the postal authorities have placed it under Kamerik.[1] Mijzijde has no place name signs and contains about 60 houses.[5]
