Safe, but not spacious
The primary school in Hassinkbrink is a good kilometre away, and still the families score comes out at 8.3. That is possible because the second half of the pillar is exceptionally strong here: more than half of households have children, against roughly a third nationally. The distance pushes down, the composition lifts.
The amenities show the reverse and stay at 5.5. Supermarket and GP are a good kilometre away, the station twelve. That is the price of a neighbourhood on the edge of a village.
What is left is strikingly consistent. None of the four categories of reported offence rises appreciably above the Dutch middle, the property value is well above it and social assistance barely occurs. The outliers are missing; it is the sum that places this neighbourhood among the best-scoring in the country.

Frequently asked questions
Is Hassinkbrink a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Hassinkbrink comes out at 12 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Hassinkbrink is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the fewest recorded crimes. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Hassinkbrink?
In Hassinkbrink the police recorded 25 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (12 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 Hassinkbrink calculated?
Hassinkbrink scores 9.1 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 Hassinkbrink 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.
