De Eenhoorn

2,640 residents · postal code 1097 · Part of Frankendael, Amsterdam

Bottom 18% in the Netherlands

Everything close by, little space

Eighty-two per cent of households in De Eenhoorn consist of one person and six per cent have children. That is the population behind the families score of 4.7: the primary school is still within a kilometre, but the share of children is a fraction of the national level.

Property offences are recorded here almost four times as often as nationally and make up the bulk of all reports. Violence and vandalism are above the median too, but much closer to it. So the safety score is mainly about theft.

Wealth & income is not clear-cut: the top income group is slightly wider than nationally, but so is the bottom group, and the social assistance rate is more than three times that of the average neighbourhood. Alongside that, a 9.7 for amenities and a 2.6 for quiet & nature sketch a place where everything is close by and nothing is still.

Frequently asked questions

Is De Eenhoorn a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, De Eenhoorn comes out at 58 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is high: De Eenhoorn is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the most recorded crimes. 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 De Eenhoorn?

In De Eenhoorn the police recorded 240 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (58 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 De Eenhoorn calculated?

De Eenhoorn scores 3.8 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 De Eenhoorn 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.
