Everything for children close by, thinner wallets
Twenty-eight kilometres to the nearest railway station: that is far, but it is not what defines the picture in Koele Nacht. The supermarket, GP and school are all within a kilometre, and together they produce a 5.5 for amenities.
What keeps the overall score at 3.3 is wealth & income. Property values are more than a hundred and fifty thousand euros below the national median and the social assistance rate is almost six times that of the average neighbourhood; the income distribution points the same way.
With safety, vandalism stands out at more than twice the national median. Violence is above the median too, theft below it — so the score here is about damage rather than loss.

Frequently asked questions
Is Koele Nacht a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Koele Nacht comes out at 28 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 Koele Nacht?
In Koele Nacht the police recorded 88 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (28 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 Koele Nacht calculated?
Koele Nacht scores 3.3 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 Koele Nacht 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.
