Safe streets, thinner wallets
It is quieter in Sint-Annaland than in almost any urban neighbourhood, and still quiet & nature gets no further than a 4.5. The explanation is greenery: the tree canopy is a fraction of the national median and the green share nearby stays well below it. Silence is one of five components, not the whole story.
The 9.4 for safety, on the other hand, is earned across the board. Violence, theft and vandalism are below the national median, burglary exactly on it, with a total of less than half the national median.
A practical fact the amenities figure does not show: shop, GP and school are all within seven hundred metres, but the nearest station is over twenty kilometres away. That makes this a place where you do everything on foot except travel.

Frequently asked questions
Is Sint-Annaland a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Sint-Annaland comes out at 11 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Sint-Annaland 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 Sint-Annaland?
In Sint-Annaland the police recorded 48 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (11 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 Sint-Annaland calculated?
Sint-Annaland scores 6.6 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 Sint-Annaland 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.
