Everything for children close by, and little room

More than eight decibels above the national median: the noise level in Randwijck Oost is what explains the 4.2 for quiet & nature almost on its own. The tree canopy here is in fact well above the middle, so vegetation is not the problem.

The wealth & income figures all point the same way, apart from vacancy, which sits exactly on the median. A property value of nearly one and a half times the national one, a broad top income group, a narrow bottom one and hardly any social assistance produce a 9.2.

The families score of 9.3 rests on a primary school four hundred metres away and a share of children above the national picture. Safety lags behind at 6.1: the crime total is below the median, but burglary and property crime occur more often here than is usual nationally.

Frequently asked questions

Is Randwijck Oost a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Randwijck Oost comes out at 23 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is about the same as in an average Dutch neighbourhood. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.

How much crime is there in Randwijck Oost?

In Randwijck Oost the police recorded 123 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (23 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 Randwijck Oost calculated?

Randwijck Oost scores 9.3 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 Randwijck Oost 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.
