Everything close by, little space

At 2.6, quiet & nature in Oranjebuurt ranks among the two hundred lowest in the country, and that is not a matter of crime but of surroundings: greenery within three hundred metres covers half of what is usual nationally, the tree canopy is thin and open water is entirely absent.

Set against that is a 9.3 for amenities, which is the same compact building seen from the other side — supermarket, GP and school are all within a few hundred metres. Only the railway station is missing from that list. The safety pillar lands on 6.4, with vandalism and burglary above the national figure and violence and property crime below. For residents that mostly means damage to property and to the door, in a neighbourhood where four in ten households consist of one person.

Frequently asked questions

Is Oranjebuurt a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Oranjebuurt comes out at 19 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 Oranjebuurt?

In Oranjebuurt the police recorded 41 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (19 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 Oranjebuurt calculated?

Oranjebuurt scores 6.9 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 Oranjebuurt 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.
