How we calculate ↗

Safe streets, thinner wallets

A 9.7 for safety and a 3.8 for wealth & income in the same neighbourhood: Doorwerth Zuid shows that the two have little to do with each other. On wealth & income every component points the same way — a property value far below the national median, a thin top income group, a broad bottom one and a share of social assistance four times the national level.

What Doorwerth Zuid does have is greenery. More than half the surroundings within three hundred metres falls under tree cover, far above the Dutch middle, and traffic noise is below it; that is where the 8.6 for quiet & nature comes from. The 5.7 for families does not come from the school, which is close by, but from who lives here: one in five households has children and a third of residents are 65 or older.

Frequently asked questions

Is Doorwerth Zuid a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Doorwerth Zuid comes out at 14 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Doorwerth Zuid is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the fewest recorded crimes. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.

How much crime is there in Doorwerth Zuid?

In Doorwerth Zuid the police recorded 26 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (14 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 Doorwerth Zuid calculated?

Doorwerth Zuid scores 9.0 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 Doorwerth 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.
