Strong across the board
The property value for the Burgemeestersbuurt is missing, and that is no small thing: it is the heaviest component of the wealth & income pillar. The 7.1 recorded therefore rests on the rest — not a single registered social assistance recipient, more households in the top income group than nationally, fewer in the bottom one.
Against that stands a vacancy rate at almost six times the national median. In a neighbourhood with this income profile that is the most striking number on the whole page, and it visibly weighs the pillar down.
The tree canopy is the second extreme: within three hundred metres the canopy share is more than three times the national median, and the sound level is below it. That brings quiet & nature to 7.5 in a place where three thousand people nonetheless live per square kilometre.

Frequently asked questions
Is Burgemeestersbuurt a safe neighbourhood?

That is low: Burgemeestersbuurt 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 Burgemeestersbuurt?
In Burgemeestersbuurt the police recorded 41 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (16 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 Burgemeestersbuurt calculated?
Burgemeestersbuurt scores 9.3 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 Burgemeestersbuurt 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.
