265 residents · postal code 1871 · Part of Schoorl, Bergen (NH.)
Safe, but few children
At almost thirty-eight decibels, Camperduin is one of the quietest places in these figures, more than thirteen below the national middle. Even so the quiet & nature pillar reaches 7.0 and no higher, because noise is only a fifth of it: there is no water here, and tree canopy does not reach half the national median.
The 7.9 for wealth & income needs nuance. Property values are more than one and a half times the national median and nobody receives social assistance, but the income side points the other way: fewer households on a high income than is usual nationally, and more on a low one. That is the picture of expensive houses with many retired residents — a third have passed sixty-five.
The railway station is almost fourteen kilometres off and the GP nearly three. Those distances explain the 3.7 for amenities, and the primary school at almost two kilometres does the same to the families pillar. What is low here are the offences: all four types stay at or below the median.

Frequently asked questions
Is Camperduin a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Camperduin comes out at 19 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 Camperduin?
In Camperduin the police recorded 2 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (19 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 Camperduin calculated?
Camperduin scores 5.2 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 Camperduin 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.
