Everything close by, safety lags
Everything in Staatsliedenkwartier en Landstraten is within seven hundred metres, and that yields a 9.2 for amenities. The flip side is in the safety score: 3.8, driven by property crime at more than one and a half times the national median and vandalism at more than double. Violence is above it too, so this is not only a matter of vanished belongings.
The wealth & income pillar of 4.4 has one clear cause. The share of high incomes sits almost exactly on the national median and vacancy is low; it is property value and above all social assistance — more than four times the national middle — that make the figure.
In quiet & nature it stands out that the tree canopy is above the median while greenery stays far below it. In a neighbourhood of almost ten thousand residents per square kilometre, the trees are therefore largely in the street.

Frequently asked questions
Is Staatsliedenkwartier en Landstraten a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Staatsliedenkwartier en Landstraten comes out at 32 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is more than in most Dutch neighbourhoods. One caveat: the figure counts per person present, not per resident. In a neighbourhood with many visitors — a centre, a station, a shopping area — it therefore comes out higher than residents experience. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Staatsliedenkwartier en Landstraten?
In Staatsliedenkwartier en Landstraten the police recorded 89 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (32 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 Staatsliedenkwartier en Landstraten calculated?
Staatsliedenkwartier en Landstraten scores 5.6 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 Staatsliedenkwartier en Landstraten 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.
