How we calculate ↗

Well-off, schools and childcare further off

Ewijk-Veluwstraat has around one hundred and ninety residents, which makes the offence rate hard to read. A single report already stands for more than five per thousand here; the 4.7 for safety is therefore about a handful of cases, not a pattern. What is certain is that the property value comes out far above the median and social assistance is zero — the 7.8 for wealth & income has a broad footing under it.

The 3.7 for families is of a different kind, and it is solid. Distance to schooling and childcare carries almost two thirds of that pillar, and the primary school here is more than a kilometre and a half away. That is not a score another component makes up for. Anyone moving here with young children will not be walking them to school, and that is precisely what the pillar measures.

Frequently asked questions

Is Ewijk-Veluwstraat a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Ewijk-Veluwstraat comes out at 40 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is high: Ewijk-Veluwstraat is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the most recorded crimes. 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 Ewijk-Veluwstraat?

In Ewijk-Veluwstraat the police recorded 16 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (40 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 Ewijk-Veluwstraat calculated?

Ewijk-Veluwstraat scores 4.9 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 Ewijk-Veluwstraat 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.
