Good for children, with a safety question
Hiltonbuurt counts seventy residents, and at that scale the wealth & income pillar is missing from the data. So the overall score here rests on four pillars instead of five — something the reader sees nowhere else on the page, and which makes the score less solid than elsewhere.
What is there is pronounced. More than half of households have children and a fifth of residents are under fifteen; with the primary school seven hundred metres away that produces a 9.6 for families. This is one of the few neighbourhoods where that score really is about children and not only about distance.
Against it stands a 2.9 for safety, almost entirely because of property crime more than four times above the national middle. At seventy residents a single report already means more than fourteen per thousand, so the figure moves on small numbers here.

Frequently asked questions
Is Hiltonbuurt a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Hiltonbuurt comes out at 59 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is high: Hiltonbuurt 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 Hiltonbuurt?
In Hiltonbuurt the police recorded 37 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (59 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 Hiltonbuurt calculated?
Hiltonbuurt scores 7.4 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 Hiltonbuurt 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.
