Safe, but everything is a drive away
Soerendonk is among the five hundred best-scoring neighbourhoods in the country, and that is not a matter of one outlier: safety, quiet & nature, families and wealth & income all sit above 7.5. On wealth that holds up component by component — property values above the national median, more high incomes than average, slightly fewer low incomes, no social assistance and little vacancy.
Safety is more striking still: violence runs at around a third of the national middle, and burglary, theft and vandalism stay below it too. The only component that does not keep up is amenities, at 5.3, and that is almost entirely the supermarket — more than three kilometres away, while GP and school are within half a kilometre.

Frequently asked questions
Is Soerendonk a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Soerendonk comes out at 11 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Soerendonk 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 Soerendonk?
In Soerendonk the police recorded 19 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (11 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 Soerendonk calculated?
Soerendonk scores 9.7 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 Soerendonk 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.
