Everything close by, safety lags

Plenty of trees in Tuindorp Frankendael: the tree canopy in the immediate surroundings is more than twice as dense as the national norm and the green share is above the middle too. Even so, quiet & nature stays stuck at a 4.4. What pulls the pillar down is the combination of density and noise — green and busy at the same time.

The 8.5 for families says more about distance than about who lives here. The primary school is a few hundred metres away, while one in five households has children and almost two thirds consist of a single person. The logistics are sorted; neighbours at the same stage of life are thin on the ground.

Safety stops at a 3.6, and that runs across the board: violence, burglary, vandalism and property crime are all four above the national median, with theft the largest share.

Frequently asked questions

Is Tuindorp Frankendael a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Tuindorp Frankendael comes out at 36 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is more than in most Dutch neighbourhoods. 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 Tuindorp Frankendael?

In Tuindorp Frankendael the police recorded 194 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (36 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 Tuindorp Frankendael calculated?

Tuindorp Frankendael scores 6.7 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 Tuindorp Frankendael 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.
