Bottom 48% in the Netherlands

Everything close by, little space

The nearest railway station is fifteen kilometres from Antoniusparochie, and still there is an 8.7 for amenities. Shop, restaurant, doctor and school are all a few hundred metres away, and those daily distances largely set the score; the station counts for only a small part.

The quiet & nature pillar shows the opposite. At 3.3 this neighbourhood is in the bottom layer of the country, and the reason is greenery: there is considerably less of it in the immediate surroundings than is usual nationally, while noise and tree canopy are ordinary.

Wealth & income comes to 4.3, held down by property values below the median and a social assistance rate twice the average. The income breakdown deviates only slightly, so those two do the work.

Frequently asked questions

Is Antoniusparochie a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Antoniusparochie comes out at 23 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is about the same as in an average Dutch neighbourhood. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.

How much crime is there in Antoniusparochie?

In Antoniusparochie the police recorded 76 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (23 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 Antoniusparochie calculated?

Antoniusparochie scores 6.1 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 Antoniusparochie 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.
