Everything for children close by, thinner wallets
In Dorp, the central neighbourhood of Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht, fewer offences are recorded than in the average Dutch neighbourhood — and yet there is only a 5.6 for safety. That difference lies in one category: burglary is at double the national median, and after violence that component is the heaviest of the pillar. The other three barely deviate.
The second striking figure is the 5.4 for wealth & income, because it does not come from the incomes. Both the share of high and that of low incomes lie virtually at the Dutch level; it is the property value, which stays slightly below it, and the share of social assistance benefits that make the score.
The primary school is five hundred metres away, and with almost half of households having children living there, that produces a 9.3 for families.

Frequently asked questions
Is Dorp a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Dorp comes out at 22 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 Dorp?
In Dorp the police recorded 132 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (22 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 Dorp calculated?
Dorp scores 8.4 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 Dorp 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.
