Everything for children close by, thinner wallets
The crime rate in Cuijk De Valuwe is only just above the national middle, but violence is well over twice above it — and violence is precisely the heaviest component of the safety pillar. Theft here actually stays below the median. That is the reverse of the city-centre picture: not mainly possessions disappearing, but reported offences that involve people.
The wealth & income pillar comes out at 3.1 and that is not a matter of one weak component. Property value is well below the national middle, half of the households belong to the lowest income group, the top group is small and the social assistance rate is more than five times the national one.
Set against that is a families score of 9.0, carried by the primary school four hundred metres away — with a share of children that is simply average.

Frequently asked questions
Is Cuijk De Valuwe a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Cuijk De Valuwe comes out at 26 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is about the same as in an average Dutch neighbourhood. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Cuijk De Valuwe?
In Cuijk De Valuwe the police recorded 101 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (26 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 Cuijk De Valuwe calculated?
Cuijk De Valuwe scores 5.1 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 Cuijk De Valuwe 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.
