How we calculate ↗

Well-off, but not carefree

A 9.9 for wealth & income next to a 5.0 for safety — in Verspreide huizen Genenberg those two figures are the furthest apart. The wealth figure has no weak component: property value is over one and a half times the national median, the top income group is almost twice as broad as national, the bottom one narrower, social assistance is absent and vacancy is low.

The safety figure comes from burglary and vandalism, both above the national middle, while violence and property crime stay below it. With over four hundred residents each type covers few registrations; read it as a direction, not as a verdict.

The primary school is over a kilometre away, and school distance is the heaviest component of the families pillar. The 7.8 therefore comes about despite that distance, not because of it.

Frequently asked questions

Is Verspreide huizen Genenberg a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Verspreide huizen Genenberg comes out at 29 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is more than in most Dutch neighbourhoods. 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 Verspreide huizen Genenberg?

In Verspreide huizen Genenberg the police recorded 18 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (29 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 Verspreide huizen Genenberg calculated?

Verspreide huizen Genenberg scores 9.0 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 Verspreide huizen Genenberg 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.
