Everything close by, little space
What makes Schoonveld unusual is the station: it is nine hundred metres away, and together with a supermarket, GP, school and restaurant within half a kilometre that produces a 9.3 for amenities. Distances like these belong to a city centre, not to a neighbourhood at this building density.
The 5.0 for quiet and nature is the bill for it, and it falls out differently than you might think. The tree canopy here is more than twice as dense as is usual nationally, but traffic noise is above the Dutch middle value and open water is entirely absent. Trees do not make up for that.
Wealth and income reaches 7.9 and that score turns mainly on property value, which is well above the national middle. The income distribution departs less: the top group is broader here than average, the bottom one only slightly narrower, and the social assistance rate is above the Dutch level.

Frequently asked questions
Is Schoonveld a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Schoonveld comes out at 16 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is low: Schoonveld 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 Schoonveld?
In Schoonveld the police recorded 63 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (16 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 Schoonveld calculated?
Schoonveld scores 9.7 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 Schoonveld 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.
