Frequently asked questions

How is this list ranked?

Why is Oolder Veste at the top?

Oolder Veste scores a 9.2 on this list, with safety 9.6 as its strongest side. That is the highest of every neighbourhood in Roermond that has a grade for this measure.

How often are these figures updated?

The crime figures are from the police for 2025; population, boundaries and the other characteristics come from the CBS neighbourhood statistics for 2025. Both are published once a year; the list is recalculated as soon as a new edition appears.
