How we calculate ↗

Everything close by, little to spend

The social assistance rate in Statenkwartier is roughly twelve times the national middle — the most outspoken figure of this neighbourhood, and the component that, with low property values, locks in the 2.8 for wealth & income. More than half of households are in the bottom income group; only vacancy sits exactly at the median.

On safety not a single type points the other way: vandalism, theft, burglary and violence all four lie above the national middle, vandalism most clearly. A 3.2 is then not a spike in one category but a broad picture.

Against that stands proximity, and it is exceptional: supermarket, GP, school, restaurant and station are all within one and a half kilometres, good for a 9.5. It does cost something, since the noise level here is far above the median and greenery below it — hence the 2.9 for quiet & nature.

Frequently asked questions

Is Statenkwartier a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Statenkwartier comes out at 33 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 Statenkwartier?

In Statenkwartier the police recorded 110 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (33 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 Statenkwartier calculated?

Statenkwartier scores 3.4 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 Statenkwartier 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.
