Everything close by, safety lags

The railway station is eight hundred metres from Van Ravesteijn-erf en omgeving, and the supermarket, GP and school are all closer still. That is how a 9.0 for amenities comes about, while the noise level stays well below the national median — the latter largely explains the 6.8 for quiet & nature.

The 3.8 for safety is almost entirely theft: property offences are recorded here twice as often as nationally. Violence and burglary are above the median too, vandalism below it.

With a third of residents over 65 and a share of households with children below the national picture, the families pillar sticks at 5.6 despite a school around the corner. That score is about who lives here.

Frequently asked questions

Is Van Ravesteijn-erf en omgeving a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Van Ravesteijn-erf en omgeving comes out at 36 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 Van Ravesteijn-erf en omgeving?

In Van Ravesteijn-erf en omgeving the police recorded 124 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (36 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 Van Ravesteijn-erf en omgeving calculated?

Van Ravesteijn-erf en omgeving scores 5.7 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 Van Ravesteijn-erf en omgeving 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.
