Everything close by, little to spend
Eimersweide scores 5.4 for quiet & nature, which is more striking than it looks. The noise level here belongs to the loudest bands on this site, more than eight decibels above the national middle. What offsets it is surface: nearly a sixth of the neighbourhood is water, against half a per cent nationally, and fewer than three thousand people live per square kilometre.
The wealth & income pillar leaves no room for nuance. Social assistance runs at more than ten times the national middle, the property value sits far below the median, and the share of higher incomes is about half of what is usual elsewhere. Only vacancy stays low. That amenities reach 7.2 here comes mainly from the supermarket and the GP being within about a kilometre; the station is four kilometres off and weighs far less in that pillar.

Frequently asked questions
Is Eimersweide a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Eimersweide comes out at 74 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is high: Eimersweide is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the most recorded crimes. 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 Eimersweide?
In Eimersweide the police recorded 135 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (74 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 Eimersweide calculated?
Eimersweide scores 3.0 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 Eimersweide 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.
