Everything close by, little to spend
More than nine in ten households in Hoofddorp Graan voor Visch Zuid consist of one person and barely three per cent have children. Such a make-up occurs rarely in the Netherlands and immediately explains the 3.2 for families: almost no children live here, and the primary school is one and a half kilometres away.
The wealth & income figure of 2.6 is just as unambiguous. Property values are at a quarter of the national median, two in three households fall in the lowest income group and virtually nothing is owner-occupied. Every component points the same way.
Safety turns entirely on property crime: it is seven times above the national middle here, while violence, burglary and vandalism come out only slightly above. The overall score of 2.5 therefore places this neighbourhood among the lowest-scoring in the country, and that does not come from one pillar.

Frequently asked questions
Is Hoofddorp Graan voor Visch Zuid a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Hoofddorp Graan voor Visch Zuid comes out at 86 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is high: Hoofddorp Graan voor Visch Zuid is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the most recorded crimes. 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 Hoofddorp Graan voor Visch Zuid?
In Hoofddorp Graan voor Visch Zuid the police recorded 192 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (86 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 Hoofddorp Graan voor Visch Zuid calculated?
Hoofddorp Graan voor Visch Zuid scores 2.5 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 Hoofddorp Graan voor Visch Zuid 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.
