Good for children, with a safety question

The breakdown of the crime figures shows where the 4.5 for safety in Nunspeet-West comes from: burglary lies at almost double the national middle, theft and violence both come out above it, and only vandalism stays below. At this population size, a difference like that cannot be explained away as chance.

Wealth also stays low, at a 4.8, and here the incomes do play a part: the highest income group is thinner than nationally, the lowest thicker, and social assistance lies well above the Dutch level. The property value itself sits just below the median.

That families nevertheless come out at a 7.7 while more than a quarter of the residents have passed 65 says most of all something about accessibility: the primary school is five hundred metres away, and in the pillar that distance weighs more heavily than the number of children.

Frequently asked questions

Is Nunspeet-West a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Nunspeet-West comes out at 27 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is more than in most Dutch neighbourhoods. 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 Nunspeet-West?

In Nunspeet-West the police recorded 351 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (27 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 Nunspeet-West calculated?

Nunspeet-West scores 5.9 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 Nunspeet-West 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.
