Everything close by, little space
Muziekwijk Noord-Zuidoost has one of the highest amenities scores in this municipality and one of the lowest overall scores: a 9.1 against a 4.0. The GP and the station are a few hundred metres away, but the other four pillars drag the average down.
The wealth & income pillar is less clear-cut than the 4.3 suggests. The share of low-income households here is actually below the national middle and the high-income share exactly on it; what makes the score is the low property value and a social assistance rate that is a multiple of the median.
On safety, violence, burglary and theft are all above the national middle. That makes the 3.2 a broad pattern rather than a single outlier.

Frequently asked questions
Is Muziekwijk N.-Zuidoost a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Muziekwijk N.-Zuidoost comes out at 34 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 Muziekwijk N.-Zuidoost?
In Muziekwijk N.-Zuidoost the police recorded 90 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (34 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 Muziekwijk N.-Zuidoost calculated?
Muziekwijk N.-Zuidoost scores 4.0 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 Muziekwijk N.-Zuidoost 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.
