Everything close by, safety lags

Burglary is almost five times as common in Dorp Bergschenhoek as in the average Dutch neighbourhood, and that explains the 3.5 for safety — violence is barely above the median and vandalism exactly on it. Burglary weighs heavily in that pillar, so one deviant type drags the whole score down with it.

The 3.8 for quiet & nature comes from elsewhere. Noise is a good five decibels above the national median and there is clearly less greenery in the immediate surroundings than average; crime plays no part in that pillar. What does hold up is the family infrastructure, worth an 8.7: the primary school is six hundred metres away and four in ten households have children at home. The station is the exception, at nearly six kilometres.

Frequently asked questions

Is Dorp Bergschenhoek a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Dorp Bergschenhoek comes out at 29 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 Dorp Bergschenhoek?

In Dorp Bergschenhoek the police recorded 128 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (29 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 Dorp Bergschenhoek calculated?

Dorp Bergschenhoek scores 5.7 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 Dorp Bergschenhoek 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.
