Safe streets, thinner wallets
Janskamp earns a 9.4 for safety, and it holds across all four measured types: violence, burglary, theft and vandalism each sit below the national middle, theft at less than a third of it.
The 4.6 for wealth & income hangs on a single outlier, and a large one: the rate of social assistance here is four times the national level. The other components are less dramatic. Property values stay below the national median, the income distribution barely differs, and vacancy is unusually low. One component, then, can pull a whole pillar down.
For daily life everything is within a kilometre and a half but nothing is truly around the corner, and the railway station requires transport. That produces a 4.9 for amenities: not a neighbourhood without shops, but one where you walk a while to reach them.

Frequently asked questions
Is Janskamp a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Janskamp comes out at 12 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Janskamp 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 Janskamp?
In Janskamp the police recorded 19 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (12 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 Janskamp calculated?
Janskamp scores 5.9 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 Janskamp 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.
