Safe streets, thinner wallets
Onder de Bomen scores an 8.8 for safety, but not because everything is low: household burglary here is just above the national median. It is violence and vandalism that carry the figure, both clearly below the Dutch middle, and together those two make up almost half of this pillar.
The 5.6 for quiet & nature is a surprise in a neighbourhood with more trees than average. The explanation is density: this is solidly built up, and the share of greenery within three hundred metres stays just below the national level. Trees alone do not lift that pillar. Wealth & income comes to a 5.5 and is divided — property value is below the national median and the share of social assistance far above it, while the income distribution itself barely deviates from the country. For shopping and the GP you need not leave the neighbourhood; for the train you do, and that is almost seven kilometres away.

Frequently asked questions

How much crime is there in Onder de Bomen?
In Onder de Bomen the police recorded 30 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (15 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 Onder de Bomen calculated?
Onder de Bomen scores 8.0 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 Onder de Bomen 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.
