Everything close by, little to spend
The station in Nieuw-Vennep Zuid is nine hundred metres away, closer than the GP. That combination is unusual and explains why the amenities pillar comes out at 8.3 while medical care is in fact further off than is customary.
The wealth & income pillar lags at 4.6, and property value is not to blame — that sits just below the national median. It is the incomes: the top group is thinner represented than nationally, the lowest wider, and the social assistance rate is almost three times as high.
On safety three of the four types point the same way. Violence, burglary and property crime all stay below the national median; only vandalism sits above it. Because violence and burglary together determine almost six tenths of the pillar, it reaches 7.4.

Frequently asked questions

For 2025, Nieuw-Vennep Zuid comes out at 23 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 Nieuw-Vennep Zuid?
In Nieuw-Vennep Zuid the police recorded 61 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (23 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 Nieuw-Vennep Zuid calculated?
Nieuw-Vennep Zuid scores 7.1 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 Nieuw-Vennep 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.
