Everything close by, safety lags
A station nine hundred metres away is rare outside the big cities, and Abcoude-Noordoost has one — together with supermarket, GP and primary school within six hundred metres, good for an 8.9.
Property values here are more than half above the national median and high incomes are clearly more common than nationally. Even so, the 8.0 for wealth & income is not complete: social assistance is above the national median and vacancy exactly on it.
The weakest figure is the 5.9 for safety, and it is no dramatic story. Violence and vandalism stay below the national median; what does come above it is theft, which for a neighbourhood next to a railway station is more the rule than the exception. Anyone living here trades a little risk to their belongings for a connection most villages do not have.

Frequently asked questions

For 2025, Abcoude-Noordoost comes out at 25 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 Abcoude-Noordoost?
In Abcoude-Noordoost the police recorded 126 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (25 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 Abcoude-Noordoost calculated?
Abcoude-Noordoost 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 Abcoude-Noordoost 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.
