Everything for children close by, thinner wallets

Maasland reaches 9.1 without excelling anywhere: not one pillar below 6.2, not one above 8.4. That is rarer than an outlier, because most neighbourhoods buy a high score on one pillar with a low one on another.

The wealth & income pillar does show where the tension lies. Property value and the share of top incomes are above the national median, vacancy below it — but the social assistance rate is more than double the median. That is not a contradiction but a spread: prosperous households alongside a group that is not.

Among the offences everything is below the national median except burglary, and that is precisely the item weighing heaviest after violence. Anyone moving here gives up the train — the station is more than eleven kilometres away — and gets quiet and greenery in return.

Frequently asked questions

Is Maasland a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Maasland comes out at 16 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Maasland is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the fewest recorded crimes. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.

How much crime is there in Maasland?

In Maasland the police recorded 92 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (16 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 Maasland calculated?

Maasland scores 9.1 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 Maasland 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.
