Scores per pillar

The Witte Dame sits squarely in the centre of Eindhoven, and it shows in every figure: not a single-family home, 59 percent single-person households and only 15 percent owner-occupied. Amenities and social life score 8.7 and 9.2, with a restaurant round the corner. The flip side of that central bustle is steep: 176 crimes per 1,000 people present, far above the median of 24, and a safety mark of 3.0. Greenery is almost absent — nature holds at 2.6.
