How we calculate ↗

Safe streets, thinner wallets

What stands out in Graswinkel is not one outlier but the absence of any: recorded offences run at less than half the national middle, with vandalism and property crime falling furthest. Only burglary edges above it, and that is too little to tip the picture.

The wealth & income pillar does lag, though not across the board. Property values and social assistance push the figure down — the latter runs almost four times above the national level — while the split between high and low incomes sits close to the national picture and vacancy far below it. For anyone moving here the caveat is practical: supermarket and GP are both more than a kilometre away, just too far for the daily shop on foot.

Frequently asked questions

Is Graswinkel a safe neighbourhood?

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

In Graswinkel the police recorded 23 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 Graswinkel calculated?

Graswinkel scores 7.1 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 Graswinkel 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.
