Everything for children close by, thinner wallets
One in ten addresses in Wagenaarstraat en omgeving is vacant, more than twice the national level. Vacancy counts towards the wealth & income pillar and comes on top of a property value far below the Dutch middle and a social assistance rate almost three times that middle. That produces a 3.0 in which not one component is favourable.
What stands against it is striking for a neighbourhood with almost five thousand residents per square kilometre: nearly two thirds of the surface around it is green and the tree canopy is more than twice the national level. That produces a 7.8 for quiet & nature.
The 9.3 for families comes from the primary school four hundred metres away, not from a young population — the share of children here is exactly at the Dutch average.

Frequently asked questions
Is Wagenaarstraat en omgeving a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Wagenaarstraat en omgeving comes out at 30 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 Wagenaarstraat en omgeving?
In Wagenaarstraat en omgeving the police recorded 82 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (30 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 Wagenaarstraat en omgeving calculated?
Wagenaarstraat en omgeving 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 Wagenaarstraat en omgeving 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.
