Everything close by, safety lags

Property value in the Louis Crispijnbuurt coincides almost exactly with the national median. Striking, because every other component of the wealth & income pillar points far down: the social assistance rate is around seven times the national one, half of households belong to the lowest income group and vacancy is well over twice the median. Property value carries the most weight in that pillar, and without that one average figure the 3.7 would have been lower still.

On safety there is no type of offence that lets the neighbourhood off. Violence, burglary, theft and vandalism all four sit above the national median, burglary at almost four times the middle.

Set against that is an amenities score of 9.7: supermarket, GP, school and restaurant are all within four hundred metres.

Frequently asked questions

Is Louis Crispijnbuurt a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Louis Crispijnbuurt comes out at 38 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is high: Louis Crispijnbuurt 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 Louis Crispijnbuurt?

In Louis Crispijnbuurt the police recorded 178 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (38 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 Louis Crispijnbuurt calculated?

Louis Crispijnbuurt scores 5.4 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 Louis Crispijnbuurt 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.
