Everything for children close by, thinner wallets

What goes wrong in Schipholt-Glanermaten is mainly vandalism: it sits almost three times above the national middle. Violence is above it too, while theft and burglary stay below the median. That makes the 4.0 for safety a figure about damage and confrontation, not about property disappearing.

Wealth is weak on every component. Property value is just over half the Dutch middle, half of households fall in the lowest income group, high incomes are rare and the social assistance rate is more than five times the median. Only vacancy stays below the national level: the homes are in use.

The 8.5 for amenities is the strong side, and it comes from the station just over a kilometre away — close enough to walk, which is unusual for a neighbourhood on the city's edge. Supermarket, GP and primary school are closer still. The greenery around it, by contrast, is two thirds of what an average neighbourhood has.

Frequently asked questions

Is Schipholt-Glanermaten a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Schipholt-Glanermaten comes out at 30 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 Schipholt-Glanermaten?

In Schipholt-Glanermaten the police recorded 102 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (30 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 Schipholt-Glanermaten calculated?

Schipholt-Glanermaten scores 4.4 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 Schipholt-Glanermaten 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.
