Safe, but not spacious

Over ten thousand residents per square kilometre is an urban density, and in Zebraspoor that shows up straight away in the quiet & nature pillar: a 4.5, with greenery far below the national median.

That density does not translate into crime here. The safety pillar reaches 9.2 and all four types of reported offence sit below the national middle, burglary at a fraction of it. That is less obvious than it sounds: dense building and high offence counts usually go together.

The families pillar stays at 6.5 even though relatively many households with children live here. That is down to the primary school, a good kilometre and a half away and the heaviest component of that figure. The social assistance rate is nearly three times above the national middle and, together with a property value below the median, explains the 5.3 for wealth & income.

Frequently asked questions

Is Zebraspoor a safe neighbourhood?

How much crime is there in Zebraspoor?

In Zebraspoor the police recorded 29 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (16 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 Zebraspoor calculated?

Zebraspoor 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 Zebraspoor 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.
