Everything close by, little to spend

Tempel is a neighbourhood where theft makes the safety figure. Property offences lie well above the national level, violence and vandalism slightly above it, and burglary exactly on the Dutch median value. Together that produces a 4.3, while none of those types is exceptional on its own.

The wealth pillar comes out at the same figure, but for a different reason. Property values stay below the national median without sinking far away from it and virtually nothing stands empty; social assistance use, by contrast, is many times higher than usual and more than four in ten households have a low income.

The 8.3 for families is the most solid score. The primary school is within half a kilometre, and that is the component that counts the heaviest in that pillar; supermarket and GP are just as close, but those belong to amenities and say nothing about this figure.

Frequently asked questions

Is Tempel a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Tempel comes out at 31 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 Tempel?

In Tempel the police recorded 208 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (31 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 Tempel calculated?

Tempel scores 5.9 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 Tempel 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.
