Everything for children close by, thinner wallets
The crime profile of Grote Waal - Buurt 13 07 is upside down compared with what you would expect in a town. Theft sits well below the national middle, while violence and vandalism both come out above it. So the 5.2 for safety does not come from things going missing but from what happens on the street, and that reversal changes the whole picture.
The 3.8 for wealth & income is less surprising and far more consistent. Property value is well below the Dutch median, the top income group is thin here, the bottom one broad, and the social assistance rate is a multiple of the national figure. Only vacancy is favourable, and that is the lightest of the five items.
What holds up is reach: primary school, GP and shop are all within roughly a kilometre, and the station two and a half.
