Plenty of space, less prosperity
Traffic noise in Harskamp dorp is nine decibels below the national median, and that is no small gap: it is audibly different. Together with a share of green space well above the middle, a tree canopy at almost three times the national level and fewer than a thousand residents per square kilometre, that produces a 9.2 for quiet & nature.
The 5.7 for wealth & income is the figure that does not point one way. Property value is above the national median and the social assistance rate at a little over half of it, but the share of households in the lowest income bracket is well above the middle and vacancy at one and a half times it. Rich or poor is not a usable summary here.
On safety the crime total is less than half the national middle, but burglary is at double it — with two thousand residents that is a real difference, not noise.
The station is over twelve kilometres away; supermarket, GP and school all within six hundred metres.

Frequently asked questions
Is Harskamp dorp a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Harskamp dorp comes out at 11 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Harskamp dorp 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 Harskamp dorp?
In Harskamp dorp the police recorded 23 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (11 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 Harskamp dorp calculated?
Harskamp dorp scores 9.2 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 Harskamp dorp 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.
