Safe, but few children
Two pillars in Ankummer Es end on exactly the same 4.7, and they share a cause: distance. Supermarket and GP are almost two kilometres away, the station nearly three, and the primary school a good kilometre. That school distance is almost a third of the families pillar, so anyone hoping to explain the low families score away with other amenities is mistaken — those do not count towards it.
Wealth & income lands on a 7.1, but not without a crack. Property value lies clearly above the national median and vacancy is minimal, while the social assistance rate is nearly double the national middle. This is not a neighbourhood that is prosperous on every component, but one where expensive houses carry the score.
Among the offences one type stands out: vandalism lies above the median here while violence, burglary and theft all stay below it. It is the cheapest form of nuisance, but the most visible on the street.

Frequently asked questions
Is Ankummer Es a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Ankummer Es comes out at 17 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Ankummer Es 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 Ankummer Es?
In Ankummer Es the police recorded 34 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (17 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 Ankummer Es calculated?
Ankummer Es scores 6.5 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 Ankummer Es 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.
