Good for children, with a safety question

The total number of registered offences in Raamsdonksveer lies almost exactly on the national median, and yet there is a 4.0 for safety. That is because the pillar does not count every registration equally heavily: violence and burglary weigh heaviest together, and it is precisely those two that come out far above the national level here. Theft, elsewhere the item that makes the score, in fact stays below it in Raamsdonksveer. An average total can hide an unfavourable profile that way.

The families pillar does considerably better than the overall score with a 7.8. The school is a short distance away and children live in more than a third of the households: both components point the same way.

The wealth side lags behind at a 4.6, with a property value below the median and a bottom income group that is thicker there than in the rest of the country.

Frequently asked questions

Is Raamsdonksveer a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Raamsdonksveer comes out at 25 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 Raamsdonksveer?

In Raamsdonksveer the police recorded 219 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (25 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 Raamsdonksveer calculated?

Raamsdonksveer scores 5.2 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 Raamsdonksveer 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.
