Safe, but everything is a drive away

Almost a third of residents of Koningshof are 65 or older, and yet the neighbourhood scores 8.7 for families. The explanation lies in the primary school three hundred metres away: school distance weighs more heavily than the share of children, and an ageing neighbourhood with education around the corner comes out well on it.

Safety stands at 9.2 and that score is broadly carried. Violence, property offences and criminal damage all sit well below the national middle; only burglary is slightly above it. For a neighbourhood with nearly seven thousand residents per square kilometre that is an unusually calm picture.

The weakest point is rail access: the station is almost seven kilometres away. That pushes the amenities pillar down to 6.4 while the GP and the school are actually close by. Anyone living here who travels by train starts every journey with a transfer.

Frequently asked questions

Is Koningshof a safe neighbourhood?

How much crime is there in Koningshof?

In Koningshof the police recorded 30 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (13 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 Koningshof calculated?

Koningshof scores 9.7 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 Koningshof 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.
