Everything close by, safety lags
Theft and property crime in De Hinthamerpoort are well over twice the national figure, and that component pushes the safety pillar down to 2.7. Violence is above the median too, but far less markedly; the picture is that of a densely built piece of city where things go missing.
The families pillar is the most interesting score here. The primary school is eight hundred metres away, so distance is not the cause. What explains the 5.5 is the age structure: one in ten residents is under fifteen, and almost six in ten households consist of one person.
The wealth & income pillar is not weak across the board. The rate of social assistance is considerably above the national median and property values below it, but vacancy is low, which counts favourably within this pillar. The overall 3.1 mainly sums up the pressure of density and crime.

Frequently asked questions
Is De Hinthamerpoort a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, De Hinthamerpoort comes out at 45 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is high: De Hinthamerpoort is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the most recorded crimes. One caveat: the figure counts per person present, not per resident. In a neighbourhood with many visitors — a centre, a station, a shopping area — it therefore comes out higher than residents experience. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in De Hinthamerpoort?
In De Hinthamerpoort the police recorded 131 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (45 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 De Hinthamerpoort calculated?
De Hinthamerpoort scores 3.1 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 De Hinthamerpoort 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.
