Safe, but everything is a drive away

Zuid-Es is among the hundred safest neighbourhoods in the Netherlands. Violence, burglary, property crime and vandalism are all four well below the national median, and with a 10.0 there is little to argue with.

The price is in the amenities pillar, which gets stuck at 4.5. The supermarket is still walkable, but the GP is nearly two kilometres away, the restaurant further still and the nearest station more than ten kilometres off. Living here means having a car, or a lot of time. What the area gives back is space: the tree canopy is more than twice as dense as is usual nationally and density is low. Wealth & income, meanwhile, stays mixed — little social assistance and no vacancy, but a property value below the median.

Frequently asked questions

Is Zuid-Es a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Zuid-Es comes out at 12 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Zuid-Es 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 Zuid-Es?

In Zuid-Es the police recorded 38 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 Zuid-Es calculated?

Zuid-Es scores 8.9 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 Zuid-Es 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.
