How we calculate ↗

Everything close by, little space

Presikhaaf II was largely built after the turn of the century and that is one of the few things immediately apparent here; the second is the social assistance rate, almost ten times the national middle, alongside more than half of households in the bottom income group. Together those set the wealth score at a 3.6.

The 9.3 for families comes from both directions at once: the primary school is close by and almost half of households have children, with a share of young residents far above the national picture. That is a combination you cannot simply assume behind a score this high, but here it holds.

On safety, violence and vandalism push the score down to a 4.8; theft and burglary are in fact below the national middle. And the 2.7 for quiet & nature is this neighbourhood's lowest score: noise far above the median, greenery below it.

Frequently asked questions

Is Presikhaaf II a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Presikhaaf II comes out at 29 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 Presikhaaf II?

In Presikhaaf II the police recorded 87 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (29 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 Presikhaaf II calculated?

Presikhaaf II scores 5.6 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 Presikhaaf II 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.
