Safe streets, thinner wallets
Almost three quarters of Leuth's immediate surroundings are green, well above the national middle, and still the quiet & nature pillar stays at 5.8. The explanation lies in what is missing: tree canopy covers only a fraction of what is usual nationally, and surface water is absent altogether. Green on the map here is mostly open land, and that counts differently from a street full of trees.
Safety is the strong side at 8.9, with violence, property crime and the total all below the median and only vandalism slightly above. The wealth & income pillar drops to 4.0, driven by a property value well below the median and a social assistance rate more than three times the national one. Practically, distance is the point to remember: shop, GP and school are all four hundred metres away, but the nearest restaurant is three kilometres off and the station more than eleven.

Frequently asked questions
Is Leuth a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Leuth comes out at 15 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Leuth is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the fewest recorded crimes. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Leuth?
In Leuth the police recorded 21 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (15 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 Leuth calculated?
Leuth scores 7.2 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 Leuth 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.
