How we calculate ↗

Everything close by, little to spend

The railway station is eight hundred metres from Vroomshoop-Oost, and for a neighbourhood with fewer than seventeen hundred residents per square kilometre that is an exceptional combination: space and a rail link around the corner. That is where the 8.6 for amenities comes from.

The 7.9 for safety is broadly grounded, because all four offence types stay below the national median here without exception: burglary, violence, vandalism and theft. Across more than two thousand seven hundred residents that means a real difference, not measurement noise.

Against that stands the wealth pillar, where no component comes out favourably: property value is below the national median, high incomes are scarce, low incomes numerous, and both the social assistance rate and vacancy are above the national figure. Space and safety go together here with tight budgets.

Frequently asked questions

Is Vroomshoop-Oost a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Vroomshoop-Oost comes out at 20 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is fewer than in most Dutch neighbourhoods. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.

How much crime is there in Vroomshoop-Oost?

In Vroomshoop-Oost the police recorded 68 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (20 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 Vroomshoop-Oost calculated?

Vroomshoop-Oost scores 7.8 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 Vroomshoop-Oost 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.
