Everything for children close by, and little room
Eilandenbuurt is new — virtually the entire housing stock dates from after 2000 — and that shows up in the score nobody expects it in. The quiet & nature pillar sticks at 4.3, with a tree canopy well below the national level and noise levels above it. Planting needs time; the model measures what stands there now.
The wealth & income pillar is strong across its full width: property value is far above the Dutch median, the share of high incomes is more than one and a half times the national one, and both social assistance and vacancy are below it. The 6.1 for amenities comes out of the distances: supermarket and GP are around a kilometre away and the station almost six. In a neighbourhood of this size that means a car or a bike for the daily shopping, not a stroll.

Frequently asked questions
Is Eilandenbuurt a safe neighbourhood?

How much crime is there in Eilandenbuurt?
In Eilandenbuurt the police recorded 41 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (13 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 Eilandenbuurt calculated?
Eilandenbuurt scores 8.8 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 Eilandenbuurt 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.
