Scores per pillar

At 163 offences per thousand residents, Zuidwal stands in a class of its own — nearly seven times the national middle, though the bustle of the central Hague inflates that figure. Safety reaches no higher than 2.7. Amenities, by contrast, score 9.8, with a restaurant a hundred metres away. Ownership is rare at fourteen percent and two-thirds of households live alone. Single-family homes are all but absent; this is city living at its most concentrated.
