School close by, shops further off

The GP almost three kilometres away and the station more than fourteen: that is why Steendijkpolder Zuid gets no further than 4.4 for amenities, while the primary school is within half a kilometre. In a neighbourhood where nearly three in ten residents are over sixty-five, that distance to the GP is the practical point on this page.

A quarter of the surface is water, more than fifty times the national share, and noise levels are clearly below the Dutch median. Even so quiet & nature gets no further than 5.5, because the green in the immediate surroundings stays under the national level. On safety, violence, property crime and criminal damage are below the median and burglaries land exactly on it, good for an 8.1.

Frequently asked questions

Is Steendijkpolder Zuid a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Steendijkpolder Zuid 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 Steendijkpolder Zuid?

In Steendijkpolder Zuid the police recorded 50 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 Steendijkpolder Zuid calculated?

Steendijkpolder Zuid scores 6.8 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 Steendijkpolder Zuid 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.
