How we calculate ↗

Everything for children close by, thinner wallets

Grunder/Koningshoef was built entirely after 2000, and it shows in the profile: four in ten households have children, the primary school is four hundred metres away, and the families pillar reaches 9.6. Only one in nine residents is over sixty-five.

The offence figure sits below the national median, but one type deviates: vandalism happens here almost twice as often as is usual nationally, while burglary is virtually absent and property crime stays well below the middle. That is the profile of a residential area where little happens beyond damage to things left outside.

The wealth & income pillar hangs at 5.1, and that is the tension in this neighbourhood. Property values sit at the national middle, more than half the homes are owner-occupied, but the social assistance rate is almost three times the median and the share of low incomes is above it. New building and owner-occupied homes do not automatically mean well-off residents here.

Frequently asked questions

Is Grunder/Koningshoef a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Grunder/Koningshoef comes out at 21 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 Grunder/Koningshoef?

In Grunder/Koningshoef the police recorded 47 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (21 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 Grunder/Koningshoef calculated?

Grunder/Koningshoef scores 8.3 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 Grunder/Koningshoef 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.
