Spacious, but safety lags

A property value of almost one and a half times the national middle, many households with a high income, few benefits — and yet a 3.4 for safety. Violence in Kraayenstein en Vroondaal occurs twice as often as is usual nationally and theft is well above it; only vandalism keeps exactly to the national median value. Wealth and safety therefore do not run together here.

The second surprise is with families. Almost half of households have children, and yet that pillar remains stuck at a 7.0. That is because of the distances: the primary school is a good one and a half kilometres away, and the distances to childcare and secondary education count in the same pillar without being on this page. The GP and the supermarket are also a few kilometres away, which brings the amenities pillar down.

Frequently asked questions

Is Kraayenstein en Vroondaal a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Kraayenstein en Vroondaal comes out at 34 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is more than in most Dutch neighbourhoods. One caveat: the figure counts per person present, not per resident. In a neighbourhood with many visitors — a centre, a station, a shopping area — it therefore comes out higher than residents experience. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.

How much crime is there in Kraayenstein en Vroondaal?

In Kraayenstein en Vroondaal the police recorded 486 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (34 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 Kraayenstein en Vroondaal calculated?

Kraayenstein en Vroondaal scores 6.7 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 Kraayenstein en Vroondaal 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.
