Well-off, and well out of town
With thirty-five residents per square kilometre, Eemland waaronder Eembrugge is one of the most thinly populated neighbourhoods in Utrecht, and it shows in a green share of more than four in five square metres within three hundred metres. That brings the quiet & nature pillar to 7.7 — high, but no higher, because traffic noise sits above the national median and tree canopy is strikingly thin.
The 9.8 for wealth & income is largely the work of the property value, which lies at nearly double the median. Social assistance and vacancy are entirely absent, but the share of low incomes lands exactly on the national middle; the claim that this is prosperous across the board therefore just fails to hold.
What it costs: primary school, supermarket and GP are all three kilometres away or more. That pushes the families pillar down to 4.3 and amenities to 4.0 — here you live at a distance from almost everything.

Frequently asked questions
Is Eemland waaronder Eembrugge a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Eemland waaronder Eembrugge comes out at 35 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 Eemland waaronder Eembrugge?
In Eemland waaronder Eembrugge the police recorded 13 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (35 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 Eemland waaronder Eembrugge calculated?
Eemland waaronder Eembrugge scores 6.1 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 Eemland waaronder Eembrugge 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.
