Kom Nuland

Plenty of space, less prosperity
Four fifths of the area within three hundred metres of Kom Nuland is green — well above the national median — and together with a noise level below it that yields a 7.8 for quiet & nature. The tree canopy lags far behind the green share: of all that greenery only a fraction is tree cover.
On wealth the picture is mixed, and the 6.4 does not say so by itself. Property values sit above the national median and social assistance far below it, but the share of households on a high income is just under the national median and the share on a low income exactly on it. This is a village of expensive homes and an ordinary income spread. Crime stays around the national median, mainly property offences and little violence.

Frequently asked questions
Is Kom Nuland a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Kom Nuland comes out at 26 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 Kom Nuland?
In Kom Nuland the police recorded 131 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (26 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 Kom Nuland calculated?
Kom Nuland scores 8.2 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 Kom Nuland 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.
