Everything close by, little space
Three of the five pillars sit below four in Componistenbuurt, and wealth & income is the sharpest. Social assistance here runs more than six times above the national median, and property value stays far below the Dutch middle.
The safety score of 4.9 needs explaining, because the total number of offences is just below the national median. The difference is violence: it runs more than twice as high as nationally, while property crime and vandalism stay below it.
What does work are the distances within the neighbourhood — supermarket, GP and restaurant are all around the corner, good for an 8.2 on amenities. But the railway station is nearly thirteen kilometres away, and with this income distribution that is a real constraint.

Frequently asked questions
Is Componistenbuurt a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Componistenbuurt comes out at 24 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is about the same as in an average Dutch neighbourhood. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Componistenbuurt?
In Componistenbuurt the police recorded 56 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (24 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 Componistenbuurt calculated?
Componistenbuurt scores 3.0 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 Componistenbuurt 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.
