Room to spare, amenities further off
Verspreide huizen Heerde-Noord en Hoorn reaches 8.9 for wealth & income, with a property value more than sixty per cent above the national median and a social assistance rate of zero. The share of households in the lowest income group, however, sits exactly on the Dutch middle — the expensive houses do not tell the whole story about who lives in them.
The 4.7 for families comes from the primary school a kilometre and a half away, which at one hundred and eighty-nine residents per square kilometre is no surprise. Almost four in ten households here have children, but distance weighs almost twice as heavily in that pillar.
What stands out in the offence picture is its distribution: property offences run above the national middle here while violence, burglary and vandalism all stay far below it. For rural land that is an unusual pattern.
