Good for children, with a safety question
The crime total in this neighbourhood in Risdam-Zuid is only a quarter above the national middle, and yet it scores a 4.5 for safety. The breakdown does the work: violence occurs twice as often here as nationally and vandalism is above the median too, while property crime and burglary stay below it. It is precisely the two most heavily weighted types that point the wrong way.
The families score of 8.7, meanwhile, says little about who lives here. Almost three in ten residents are 65 or older and the share of children is below the national middle; what carries the pillar is the primary school four hundred metres away.
Wealth & income comes out at 5.1 and is mid-table in every direction: property values are below the national median, incomes are close around it and social assistance stays under it. No component stands out.

Frequently asked questions
Is Risdam-Zuid - Buurt 20 06 a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Risdam-Zuid - Buurt 20 06 comes out at 30 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is more than in most Dutch neighbourhoods. 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 Risdam-Zuid - Buurt 20 06?
In Risdam-Zuid - Buurt 20 06 the police recorded 74 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (30 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 Risdam-Zuid - Buurt 20 06 calculated?
Risdam-Zuid - Buurt 20 06 scores 5.8 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 Risdam-Zuid - Buurt 20 06 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.
