Safe streets, thinner wallets
Not one of the four offence types in Volendam-Rozettenbuurt rises above the national median: violence, burglary, property crime and vandalism all sit below it, vandalism at a third of it. Hence the 8.5 for safety, and it is the kind where no single type colours the statistic.
The wealth & income pillar shows a different picture from the one owner-occupied streets suggest. Almost seven in ten homes are owner-occupied, but property values are seventy-five thousand euros below the national middle and half of households have a low income. Ownership and wealth are not the same thing here.
What you will not find is a rail connection: the nearest station is more than ten kilometres away, and the GP a kilometre and a half. That pushes the amenities pillar back to the middle despite the supermarket six hundred metres off. More than a quarter of residents have passed sixty-five, which makes that distance to the GP weigh all the more.
