Safe streets, thinner wallets
Burglary barely happens in De Huet - fase 5: that figure sits at a fraction of the national median, and violence, property crime and vandalism stay below it too. That is what the 9.6 for safety rests on.
The 4.5 for wealth & income is less clear-cut than such a score suggests. The share of low incomes is just below the national median, vacancy is low, and the social assistance rate is above the median but not extreme. What pushes the pillar down is above all property value, its heaviest component, which stays well below the national median.
Distances here diverge. The supermarket is around the corner, but the GP and the nearest restaurant are a good one and a half kilometres away. For the daily shop that changes nothing; for everything beyond it, the day starts with a bike or a car.
