Well-off, and well out of town
Property values in Bilthoven Noord II run at more than two and a half times the Dutch middle, and with social assistance at zero and almost half of households in the top income group the wealth & income pillar reaches a 9.7. Only vacancy sits slightly above the median here; everything else points the same way.
What further sets this area apart is the tree canopy: more than forty-five per cent of the surface within three hundred metres, over five times the national middle, with four fifths greenery around it. That is the 8.6 for quiet & nature.
The 5.9 for safety does not seem to fit, and the total offence rate even less — that lies below the median. The difference is in the type: property crime and burglary run above the national figure here, violence and vandalism below it. That is the picture of a prosperous area that gets burgled, not of one where things go wrong on the street. A third of residents are over 65.

For 2025, Bilthoven Noord II comes out at 23 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is about the same as in an average Dutch neighbourhood. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Bilthoven Noord II?
In Bilthoven Noord II the police recorded 83 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (23 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 Bilthoven Noord II calculated?
Bilthoven Noord II scores 9.2 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 Bilthoven Noord II 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.
