Safe, but everything is a drive away

Daalmeer-Noordoost has a 9.2 for families and a 5.3 for amenities, and the difference lies in which distance you measure. The primary school is five hundred metres away, but supermarket and GP are both a good kilometre off and the nearest restaurant further still.

The 9.4 for safety is solidly founded: reported offences are at just over half the national middle, with violence and burglary both far below the median. Only vandalism sits slightly above the national level.

Wealth & income comes out at 6.6 and that is a mixed picture: the share of high incomes is above the national median and low incomes below it, while property value stays under the national middle. It is not income that limits this score, then, but the valuation of the homes.

Frequently asked questions

Is Daalmeer-Noordoost a safe neighbourhood?

How much crime is there in Daalmeer-Noordoost?

In Daalmeer-Noordoost the police recorded 31 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 Daalmeer-Noordoost calculated?

Daalmeer-Noordoost 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 Daalmeer-Noordoost 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.
