How we calculate ↗

Everything for children close by, thinner wallets

Given a total of reported offences only slightly above the national median, the 4.4 for safety in Venelaankwartier - Buurt 11 02 is low. The explanation lies in the distribution: burglary is recorded here more than twice as often as nationally, violence and vandalism are also above the median, and only property crime stays below. It is precisely the first two that carry the most weight in this pillar.

The 4.3 for wealth & income is broadly based: property value below the national median, the share of high incomes below it, the share of low incomes above it and social assistance at more than three times the national level; only vacancy is low. The 8.2 for families stands apart from that and leans on the short distance to school and childcare, not on the number of children — that sits at the national average.
