Everything close by, little space

In Tuindorp almost six in ten households consist of one person, and that is the key to the families score of 5.7. The primary school is seven hundred metres away, so distance is not what depresses it; the share of children is far below the national level and so is the share of households with children.

The 2.8 for quiet and nature is the weakest figure and it comes from two directions: greenery within three hundred metres stops at just over half the Dutch middle value and traffic noise sits almost five decibels above it. There is no open water.

Safety comes out at 5.4 even though the total number of reported offences is below the national middle. That is because three of the four types sit just above or close around it; only property offences stay clearly below. So this is not a neighbourhood with a specific problem, but one that does not stand out downward on any single point.

Frequently asked questions

Is Tuindorp a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Tuindorp comes out at 23 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is about the same as in an average Dutch neighbourhood. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.

How much crime is there in Tuindorp?

In Tuindorp the police recorded 85 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (23 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 Tuindorp calculated?

Tuindorp scores 4.9 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 Tuindorp 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.
