Bottom 22% in the Netherlands

Everything for children close by, and little room

Violent offences in Schiekamp-Zuid run at four times the national median. That is the heaviest-weighted component of the safety pillar, and it explains the 3.7 almost on its own — burglary and property crime here stay below the national middle.

The wealth & income pillar of 3.2 is less clear-cut than it looks. The property value is a little over half the national median and the social assistance rate is four times above the middle, but the bottom income group is actually slightly narrower than nationally and vacancy sits exactly on the median. What is missing here is assets rather than income.

Against that stand an 8.9 for amenities and a 9.1 for families: supermarket, GP, school and restaurant are all within half a kilometre. For a household without a car this is, despite everything, one of the more practical places in the municipality.

Frequently asked questions

Is Schiekamp-Zuid a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Schiekamp-Zuid comes out at 70 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is high: Schiekamp-Zuid is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the most recorded crimes. One caveat: the figure counts per person present, not per resident. In a neighbourhood with many visitors — a centre, a station, a shopping area — it therefore comes out higher than residents experience. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.

How much crime is there in Schiekamp-Zuid?

In Schiekamp-Zuid the police recorded 185 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (70 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 Schiekamp-Zuid calculated?

Schiekamp-Zuid scores 4.1 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 Schiekamp-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.
