Safe streets, thinner wallets

Koedijk en De Weijdt earns an 8.7 for safety and a 4.4 for wealth & income, and the two figures have nothing to do with each other. The first rests on reported offences at two thirds of the national middle, with burglary and violence both below the median.

The second comes mainly from social assistance, claimed here around two and a half times as often as nationally, and from a property value below the national median. The share of low incomes is above it and that of high incomes below it; on no component does this score point the other way.

The 6.8 for quiet & nature comes from the greenery: over sixty per cent of the surroundings, against a little more than half nationally. More than a quarter of residents are 65 or older.

Frequently asked questions

Is Koedijk en De Weijdt a safe neighbourhood?

How much crime is there in Koedijk en De Weijdt?

In Koedijk en De Weijdt the police recorded 44 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (17 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 Koedijk en De Weijdt calculated?

Koedijk en De Weijdt scores 7.6 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 Koedijk en De Weijdt 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.
