Everything close by, little space
Crime in the Van Tuyllbuurt is almost entirely about things. Property crime runs at nearly twice the national median, while violence, burglary and vandalism all stay below it. That is the profile of a busy city neighbourhood where a lot goes missing, not of a place where you would rather stay in after dark — though it does push safety down to a 5.7.
The 10.0 for amenities can be taken almost literally: a supermarket two hundred metres away, a restaurant at one hundred, a school at three hundred. Few neighbourhoods in the country match it.
The other side is in the quiet & nature score of 3.9. Over twenty thousand residents per square kilometre leaves little room for greenery, and that is exactly what the measurement shows: under a third of the surroundings counts as green.

Frequently asked questions
Is Van Tuyllbuurt a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Van Tuyllbuurt comes out at 27 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 Van Tuyllbuurt?
In Van Tuyllbuurt the police recorded 181 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (27 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 Van Tuyllbuurt calculated?
Van Tuyllbuurt scores 9.3 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 Van Tuyllbuurt 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.
