Everything close by, little to spend
Reigersbos 4 sits close to the national median on almost every crime figure, and yet the safety score is 5.2. That is down to which type: violence is above the national middle and residential burglary at almost three times it, while property crime stays well below. The heavy categories weigh most in that pillar, and that pulls the score down despite an ordinary total.
The wealth & income pillar stops at 4.4. Property value and income distribution deviate only modestly from the national picture, but the rate of social assistance is three times normal — that is the component making the difference, not house prices.
Greenery here is above the national median and yet quiet & nature gets no further than 6.8; the noise level is almost five decibels above the national middle and cancels out much of what the greenery gives.

For 2025, Reigersbos 4 comes out at 24 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is about the same as in an average Dutch neighbourhood. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Reigersbos 4?
In Reigersbos 4 the police recorded 81 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (24 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 Reigersbos 4 calculated?
Reigersbos 4 scores 5.8 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 Reigersbos 4 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.
