Good for children, with a safety question
Violence in this neighbourhood in Hoorn-Noord occurs more than three times as often as in the median Dutch neighbourhood, and that is the most heavily weighted component of the safety pillar. Together with property crime and vandalism above the median, it explains the 2.8 — the lowest figure in the neighbourhood, and not attributable to one kind of theft.
Against that stands a 9.8 for families, among the four hundred highest in the country. The primary school is two hundred metres away and more than a third of households have children; that is the combination that carries such a pillar.
Wealth & income comes out at 3.9 and that figure is broadly founded: property values are below the national median, almost half of households fall in the lowest income group and social assistance is many times above the national middle. Not one component points the other way here.

Frequently asked questions
Is Hoorn Noord - Buurt 12 01 a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Hoorn Noord - Buurt 12 01 comes out at 41 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is high: Hoorn Noord - Buurt 12 01 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 Hoorn Noord - Buurt 12 01?
In Hoorn Noord - Buurt 12 01 the police recorded 100 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (41 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 Hoorn Noord - Buurt 12 01 calculated?
