Safe streets, thinner wallets
Kern Roggel does better than the national middle on four of the five pillars and only slips on wealth & income. That 5.3 is not clear-cut either: property values are below the Dutch median and there are somewhat fewer high-income households, but the share of low incomes sits exactly on the national middle and vacancy below it. This is not a neighbourhood where the money has run out, but it is one where it is not plentiful.
Quiet & nature reaches 7.6 and noise is the clearest factor in it: more than four decibels below the national median. Greenery and tree canopy are both just above.
The families pillar stalls at 5.9 while the primary school stands seven hundred metres away. The explanation therefore lies with who lives here: a quarter of residents are 65 or older and the share of children is below the national average.

Frequently asked questions
Is Kern Roggel a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Kern Roggel comes out at 17 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 Kern Roggel?
In Kern Roggel the police recorded 70 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (17 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 Kern Roggel calculated?
Kern Roggel scores 8.2 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 Kern Roggel 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.
