Theresia Midden

2,370 residents · postal code 5041 · Part of Theresia, Tilburg

Bottom 17% in the Netherlands

Everything close by, little space

Theresia Midden reaches 7.8 for families while only eleven percent of residents are under fifteen and more than half of all households consist of one person. That pillar mainly measures distance, and the primary school here is three hundred metres away. Anyone reading the score as a sign that many children live here is reading it wrong.

The overall score stays at 3.8 because two pillars reinforce each other. Wealth & income drops to 3.7 with a social assistance rate almost four times the national middle, low incomes above and high incomes below the national distribution. Quiet & nature gets no further than 2.8: no water, a share of green under a third of the national level, and nine thousand residents per square kilometre.

Among offences burglary stands out, more than three times the national value. Violence and criminal damage are above it too, but not by much.

Frequently asked questions

Is Theresia Midden a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Theresia Midden comes out at 31 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 Theresia Midden?

In Theresia Midden the police recorded 101 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (31 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 Theresia Midden calculated?

Theresia Midden scores 3.8 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 Theresia Midden 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.
