Safe streets, thinner wallets

The overall score for Loove rests on four pillars rather than five: there is no figure for amenities, and incomes and vacancy are missing too. Statistics Netherlands does not publish income data where there are too few households. What is there is a 9.4 for safety, and that figure is earned across the board: none of the recorded offence types rises above the national median.

The 4.5 for wealth & income therefore leans on what is still known: a property value below the national median and a share of residents on social assistance well above it. The 5.3 for quiet & nature is the figure that surprises most in a village. It is quiet here — the noise level is clearly below the median — but the greenery in the immediate surroundings falls below it and open water is absent altogether.

Frequently asked questions

Is Loove a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Loove comes out at 12 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Loove is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the fewest recorded crimes. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.

How much crime is there in Loove?

In Loove the police recorded 30 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (12 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 Loove calculated?

Loove scores 7.0 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 Loove 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.
