Scores per pillar

Little in Amsterdam is built as densely as Schinkelbuurt-Noord: more than 24,000 residents per square kilometre, and barely a single-family home to be found — just 1 per cent. It is young and urban: 61 per cent living alone, 10 per cent over 65. Amenities are first-rate at a 9.7, with a restaurant a hundred metres off, but greenery is absent, as the nature score of 3.4 attests. Crime, at 30 per 1,000 people present, sits above the middle.
