Everything for children close by, and little room
Quiet Fijnaart certainly is, green it is not. The noise level lies below the Dutch figure and few people live on a lot of ground, but the greenery measurement in the immediate surroundings lags far behind the national picture and the tree canopy share is less than half as large. That is where the 4.4 for quiet & nature comes from.
The total crime figure lies below the national level, but that is not the whole story. Violence, burglary and vandalism all three come out above it; only theft lags well behind. So the 5.4 for safety is the balance of opposing movements, not a carefree village score.
Amenities get stuck at a 6.6. The supermarket is a kilometre away, the GP closer, the station a good ten kilometres off: everyday life here can be done on foot, travelling cannot.

Frequently asked questions
Is Fijnaart a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Fijnaart comes out at 20 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 Fijnaart?
In Fijnaart the police recorded 121 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (20 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 Fijnaart calculated?
Fijnaart scores 4.7 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 Fijnaart 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.
