Everything close by, little space

To understand the 4.4 for wealth & income in Lombok you have to look at one item and ignore the rest. The income spread in this Arnhem neighbourhood is thoroughly ordinary: the share of higher incomes sits on the national middle, the share of lower incomes exactly on it, and no more property stands empty than elsewhere. What pushes the score down is social assistance, almost five times the national median, alongside a property value that stays below the median.

The 3.5 for quiet & nature misleads in another way. Trees are not the problem: the canopy around Lombok is almost twice as dense as in the average Dutch neighbourhood. It lies in the noise level, well above the national middle, and in a built-up area holding more than six thousand people per square kilometre. There is greenery here, but it is greenery with traffic audible over it.

Frequently asked questions

Is Lombok a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Lombok comes out at 21 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 Lombok?

In Lombok the police recorded 44 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (21 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 Lombok calculated?

Lombok scores 5.3 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 Lombok 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.
