Safe, but not spacious
Losse Landen has, after two other neighbourhoods, the lowest crime figure in the Netherlands — a 10.0 for safety, with violence, burglary, property crime and vandalism all far below the national median. Burglary barely occurs at all.
The 9.1 for families is carried from two sides: the primary school is close by and almost half of all households have children. That last figure is exceptionally high, and this is one of the few places where the families score does not rest on distance alone.
The wealth & income pillar is less clear-cut than the rest. Vacancy is minimal, but property values sit just below the national median, the top income group is narrower than nationally and the bottom one broader. A 6.1 sums that up: not a weak neighbourhood, but not at the level of its safety figures either.

Frequently asked questions
Is Losse Landen a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Losse Landen comes out at 10 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Losse Landen is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the fewest recorded crimes. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Losse Landen?
In Losse Landen the police recorded 34 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (10 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 Losse Landen calculated?
Losse Landen scores 9.8 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 Losse Landen 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.
