Bottom 30% in the Netherlands

Plenty of space, less prosperity

The total offence figure for Risdam-Noord is just below the national median, and that is exactly why the breakdown matters here. Violence runs more than twice above the national middle, while property crime stays at about half of it and burglary is all but absent. The average tells a different story from the components.

The wealth & income pillar stalls at 3.8, pushed down from two sides: property values well below the median and a rate of social assistance almost four times the national level, while the income distribution sits closer to the national picture. Against that stands a green setting with tree canopy well above the national share, good for a quiet & nature pillar that is the only one to climb above six.
