Everything for children close by, and little room
Seizoenenbuurt West has more households with children than without, and only one in eleven residents is 65 or older. With a primary school six hundred metres away, the families pillar comes out at a 9.5; here the high score is not only a matter of short distances.
The 5.4 for wealth & income is less clear-cut than it looks. Property value and income distribution are close to the national median, but the social assistance rate is more than three times the national level. A single component pulls the score down here.
On safety, every offence type stays below the median, with burglary the largest outlier downwards.

For 2025, Seizoenenbuurt West comes out at 20 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 Seizoenenbuurt West?
In Seizoenenbuurt West the police recorded 58 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (20 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 Seizoenenbuurt West calculated?
Seizoenenbuurt West scores 9.1 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 Seizoenenbuurt West 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.
