Good for children, with a safety question

No property value is available for Angerenstein, and that matters when reading this page: property value is the heaviest component of the wealth & income pillar. The 7.4 shown here therefore comes from the other components — and those are unambiguous. More than a third of households are in the top income group, almost double the national figure, and the social assistance rate stays far below the median.

One component points the other way: vacancy here sits considerably above the national level.

The 4.9 for safety is the weakest pillar. The total number of reports is below the national middle, but burglary occurs at twice the rate and that component weighs heavily. More than a quarter of residents are 65 or older, while four in ten households have children — two age groups that overlap little here.

Frequently asked questions

Is Angerenstein a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Angerenstein comes out at 22 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is fewer than in most Dutch neighbourhoods. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.

How much crime is there in Angerenstein?

In Angerenstein the police recorded 63 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (22 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 Angerenstein calculated?

Angerenstein scores 8.7 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 Angerenstein 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.
