Bottom 42% in the Netherlands

Everything close by, little space

A 9.8 for amenities against a 2.7 for quiet & nature: Kern rand Noord shows what living hard against the centre delivers and what it costs. Supermarket, station, restaurant and GP are all within a kilometre, set against noise far above the national median and strikingly little greenery around.

The 4.5 for wealth & income is less clear-cut than it looks. Property values are below the national median and the share of households on a low income well above it, but vacancy is ordinary and the rate of social assistance, though higher than nationally, is not extreme.

On safety, what stands out is that violence is above the national middle here while burglary, theft and vandalism stay below. That is the reverse of the pattern a busy edge-of-centre area usually shows, where things go missing and violent offences are the milder half.

Frequently asked questions

Is Kern rand Noord a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Kern rand Noord comes out at 24 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is about the same as in an average Dutch neighbourhood. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.

How much crime is there in Kern rand Noord?

In Kern rand Noord the police recorded 23 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (24 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 Kern rand Noord calculated?

Kern rand Noord scores 5.6 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 Kern rand Noord 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.
