Safe, but not spacious
Vrouwtjeslant / Nieuweveen scores 3.2 for quiet and nature even though it is not a loud place — traffic noise is below the Dutch middle value. The score comes from the other four components of that pillar: population density is high for a neighbourhood with this many single-family homes, greenery within three hundred metres stays below the national level, the tree canopy likewise, and open water is entirely absent.
Safety is in good shape at 9.2. Burglaries are a fraction of the national middle, property offences and vandalism far below it; only violence sits exactly on the Dutch level.
Wealth and income is more divided than the 6.6 suggests. Property value is above the national middle and vacancy well below it, but the social assistance rate comes out at more than two and a half times the Dutch level — an outlier that does not fit the rest of the picture.
