Well-off, schools and childcare further off
In Taalstraat en omgeving the restaurant is four hundred metres away, but the supermarket, GP and primary school are all three more than a kilometre off. That combination yields a 7.4 for amenities and at the same time pushes the families pillar down to 5.5 — school distance is the heaviest component there, and that kilometre counts.
The 8.9 for wealth & income comes first of all from property value, which is well above the Dutch median, and the income distribution points the same way. Only vacancy is somewhat above the national middle. The quiet & nature pillar holds at 6.8 despite traffic noise more than seven decibels above the median; greenery and the tree canopy offset it. Almost a third of residents are over sixty-five.
