Dierikon ( Swiss-German : Dierike ) is a municipality in the Lucerne-Land constituency in the canton of Lucerne in Switzerland .
geography
The community is located in the Rontal on the Lucerne-Zug route between Ebikon and Root LU north of Dottenberg and Rooter Berg to the east . The community is partially forested on both mountain slopes. Dottenberg and Rooter Berg are separated from each other by the Götzental , in which there is also a historic country estate. The Götzentalbach flows through this in a north-westerly direction to the confluence with the Ron . 59.2% of the municipal area of 282 hectares is used for agriculture. Another 22.3% is covered by forest and wood and 17.4% is settlement area (of which 60.1% are single-family houses, 12.3 are two-family houses and 27.5% are multi-family houses).
Dierikon borders on Adligenswil , Buchrain , Ebikon , Root and Udligenswil . The highest point of the community is on the Rooterberg at 786 m above sea level. M. , the deepest on the Ron at 414 m above sea level. M.
The area of Rigistrasse from the intersection of Zentralstrasse to and with the bakery forms the unofficial village center. In this area there is a residential and commercial building with a restaurant, the church with the steeple, the parish hall with the post office, the bakery, the primary school, the kindergarten, the historic Dörfli and, until 2012, the post office.
population
The population increased sharply between 1798 and 1816 (1798–1816: +88.7%). By 1850 it sank significantly due to emigration (1816–1850: −16.9%). After a small increase until 1870, it fell massively until 1880 - only to increase again just as strongly in the following decade. The population fell until 1910, after which it rose again. Overall, the number of residents changed only insignificantly in the 150 years between 1820 and 1970. A steady population growth did not start until 1970, when Dierikon became the agglomeration of the city of Lucerne (1970–2010: +273.6%). In recent years, growth has slowed.

languages
The population speaks a highly Alemannic dialect as everyday language. At the last census in 2000, 90.77% said German, 2.66% Serbo-Croatian and 1.33% Albanian as their main language.
Religions - denominations
The entire population used to belong to the Roman Catholic Church. This has changed as a result of leaving the church and immigration from other regions in Switzerland and abroad. Today (as of 2000) the religious landscape looks like this: There are 70.37% Roman Catholic, 13.14% Evangelical Reformed and 1.95% Orthodox Christians. In addition, there are 7.11% non-denominational and 4.22% Muslim. The Orthodox are Serbs and Montenegrins by origin. The Muslims are mostly Albanians by origin; in addition, Bosnians and a few Turks and Kurds.

At the end of 2017 the community had 1503 inhabitants. Of these, 1,243 were Swiss citizens and 260 (= 17.30%) were people of other nationalities. The largest groups of immigrants come from Germany (45 people), Italy (37), Kosovo (25), Portugal (18), North Macedonia (15), Serbia and Spain (13 each) and Sri Lanka (9 people).
village life
Dierikon has an amusement park with a tennis hall, outdoor facilities, a squash hall and a badminton hall. The Guggenmusigen widespread in German-speaking Switzerland are represented in Dierikon by the "Schlitzaeuglern". There are also various sports and leisure clubs in Dierikon.
traffic
Dierikon can be reached by bus line 23 Lucerne-Ebikon-Root. From 2019 trolleybus line 1 (Obernau – Kriens – Maihof) will be extended to the Mall of Switzerland. The construction of the Buchrain (-Dierikon) S-Bahn stop on the Zug – Lucerne railway line has made public transport more accessible . The S1 trains of the Lucerne S-Bahn (Sursee – Baar) stop here every half hour.
For people who live on the Dottenberg (especially on the upper Spechtenstrasse or the Oberdierikonerstrasse) near the border with Ebikon, we also recommend No. 26, the Lucerne transport company Ottigenbühl-Unterlöchli-Brüelstrasse.
The place is on the main connection from Lucerne to Zug. The Rontal connection, which was approved by the people in a vote on September 25, 2005 and opened on June 22, 2011, is intended to reduce traffic congestion in the village. It has replaced the Gisikon motorway junction on the A14 as the closest, even if it still exists.

The children can attend kindergarten and primary school where they live; the Rigi and Pilatus schools are available for this purpose. Secondary education takes place in the neighboring community of Root. Learners of the grammar school can z. B. to Lucerne to the canton school (coll. Kanti ).

history
The community is first mentioned in a toboggan from the Cistercian monastery Rathausen under the name Dierinkon in the late 13th century. Soon afterwards it belonged to the domain of the Habsburgs . First to the Meienberg office , later to the Rothenburg office. In 1394, the community actually fell to the city of Lucerne in 1406 and then officially in 1406, and until 1798 belonged to the Landvogtei Rothenburg. After that, it was part of the Lucerne district for five years before the newly created Hochdorf Office in 1803 . As early as 1814 it was reallocated to the Office of Lucerne , which it still belongs to today. Since 2008, the municipality has been part of the Lucerne-Land constituency, which replaced the offices.
