neighbourhood in De Ronde Venen
Vinkeveen Dorp
2,550 residents · postal code 3645 · Part of Vinkeveen, De Ronde Venen
Safe, but few children
A fifth of the surface of Vinkeveen Dorp is water, and that lifts the quiet & nature pillar to 7.1 even though the greenery around is no more than average and noise levels sit on the national median.
The 9.1 for safety rests on all four offence types at once: violence, burglary, theft and vandalism each stay below the national midpoint. Such results are rarer than a high total suggests, because usually one type stands out.
Wealth & income lands at 7.3, carried by property values far above the median. One component points the other way: vacancy is higher than is usual nationally, while social assistance and incomes sit close to the midpoint. For families it stops at 5.7, and that is down to the primary school being a kilometre away.

Frequently asked questions

How much crime is there in Vinkeveen Dorp?
In Vinkeveen Dorp the police recorded 44 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (13 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 Vinkeveen Dorp calculated?
Vinkeveen Dorp scores 9.1 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 Vinkeveen Dorp 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.
