Everything for children close by, thinner wallets

The crime total for Langdonk-West is below the national median, and still the safety pillar hangs at 4.7. The breakdown explains it: violence, burglary and vandalism are all three above the national middle, and only theft below it. Those first two carry the most weight in this pillar, so a low total helps little here.

Wealth & income is the real weakness, at 3.6, with property values far below the median and social assistance at more than three times the national level. Against that stands the neighbourhood's highest score: 9.7 for families, with a primary school around the corner and four in ten households with children. The housing stock has not changed this century — not a single home dates from after 2000.

Frequently asked questions

Is Langdonk-West a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Langdonk-West comes out at 23 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 Langdonk-West?

In Langdonk-West the police recorded 46 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (23 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 Langdonk-West calculated?

Langdonk-West scores 5.1 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 Langdonk-West 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.
