Scores per pillar

This is a neighbourhood of single people, with 62 percent of households one-person and families scarce. Against a high income of €44,000 per resident stands a safety grade of 2.6 and an exceptional crime load: over 230 offences per 1,000 residents, though the pull of a busy entertainment district weighs heavily in that figure.
