Hoptille
1,985 residents · postal code 1102 · Part of H-buurt, Amsterdam
Everything close by, little space
In Hoptille every component of the wealth & income pillar points the same way, and that is unusual. Property values sit at a little over half the national median, the share of high incomes at a quarter of it, the share of low incomes well above, and the social assistance rate at eight times the national level. Not one figure pushes back; hence the 2.6.
The quiet & nature pillar sits at the same level, but for different reasons: almost ten thousand residents per square kilometre, more than twelve decibels more noise than is usual nationally, and no water. Greenery within three hundred metres does not reach half the median.
Against that stands an 8.5 for amenities, and it is earned: supermarket, GP and railway station are all within a kilometre. Seven in ten households here are single-person, which confirms the picture of a district of small rented flats. Anyone without a car can still get around.

Frequently asked questions
Is Hoptille a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Hoptille comes out at 56 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is high: Hoptille 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 Hoptille?
In Hoptille the police recorded 160 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (56 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 Hoptille calculated?
Hoptille scores 2.6 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 Hoptille 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.
