Everything for children close by, and little room
Oosteinde scores well above the Dutch middle on four of the five pillars and then sinks away on quiet to a 3.8. That does not come from crowding — few people live per square kilometre — but from greenery. The tree canopy around the addresses reaches only half the national level, the vegetation around it stays clearly below, and the noise lies above.
The 9.0 for families is one you rarely see matched by the population behind it. More than half of households have children living in them, and the primary school is nearby. Usually such a figure comes mainly from distances; here it comes from both.
The wealth score of 8.5 rests on a property value far above the Dutch middle, with an income distribution to match and hardly any vacancy. The crime total stays well below the national level; only burglary edges just above it.

Frequently asked questions
Is Oosteinde a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Oosteinde comes out at 13 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Oosteinde is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the fewest recorded crimes. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Oosteinde?
In Oosteinde the police recorded 138 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (13 per 1,000) is not simply that count divided by the number of residents: we count residents plus workplaces, so a shopping street or station is not unfairly penalised, and for small counts we pull the figure towards the national average — otherwise a single incident would make a small neighbourhood look unsafe.
How is the grade for Oosteinde calculated?
Oosteinde scores 9.0 as its total score. That grade is a national position: we weigh five equally heavy scores — safety, amenities, wealth & income, quiet & nature and families — and see where Oosteinde lands among every neighbourhood in the Netherlands. So it is not the mean of the five grades, but a place in the queue. All from open data published by CBS and the police.
