Well-off, and comfortable across the board
Violence, burglary, theft and vandalism in Filmwijk Midden are all below the national median, and for vandalism and theft it is a fraction of it. That explains the 9.3 for safety better than the total number of reported offences, which never shows anything of the kind.
The wealth & income pillar points the same way: high property values, little social assistance, hardly any vacancy and a wide high-income group. Four favourable components in a row are rarer than a single outlier.
The weakest score is the 6.8 for amenities, and here that is not a shortage but a matter of walking a little longer: the supermarket and the GP are both just over the kilometre, the primary school stays under it. For a neighbourhood where almost half of households have children, that last one is the figure that counts.

Frequently asked questions
Is Filmwijk Midden a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Filmwijk Midden comes out at 19 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is fewer than in most Dutch neighbourhoods. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Filmwijk Midden?
In Filmwijk Midden the police recorded 46 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (19 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 Filmwijk Midden calculated?
Filmwijk Midden scores 9.9 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 Filmwijk Midden 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.
