Overloon Centrum
2,950 residents · postal code 5825 · Part of Overloon, Land van Cuijk
Everything close by, little to spend
Overloon Centrum earns an 8.7 without excelling anywhere financially. Property values sit almost exactly on the national median and the share of higher incomes slightly below it; what keeps wealth & income at a 5.9 rather than lower is the low social assistance rate and the small amount of vacancy. This is not a village that is well off — it is mainly even.
The strength lies in the surroundings. Greenery and tree canopy are both above the national level and noise clearly below it, which yields an 8.2 for quiet & nature.
One figure does not fit that calm picture. Violence, property offences and criminal damage are all below the national median, but domestic burglary runs at more than double it. Anyone looking at their front door here has a different story from anyone looking at the street. The railway station is almost five kilometres away; the rest of the amenities are walkable.

Frequently asked questions
Is Overloon Centrum a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Overloon Centrum comes out at 18 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is fewer than in most Dutch neighbourhoods. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Overloon Centrum?
In Overloon Centrum the police recorded 64 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (18 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 Overloon Centrum calculated?
Overloon Centrum scores 8.7 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 Overloon Centrum 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.
