Everything close by, little space
A 9.7 for amenities is close to the maximum, and in centrumgebied 's-Gravenzande it is earned: supermarket, restaurant and GP are two to three hundred metres away. Residents here have to plan nothing for daily life.
The 5.6 for safety belongs to that same centre, but not in the way you would expect. Theft is well above the national middle, which fits a place many people pass through, but violence is above it too. Burglary and vandalism stay below the median. So it is not simply a matter of things going missing.
The 2.7 for quiet & nature comes from three things at once: a great deal of building per square kilometre, little greenery immediately around, and no water. And with half the households consisting of one person, this is mainly a neighbourhood of small households, which means the 7.7 for families owes itself to the short school distance rather than to the age structure.

Frequently asked questions
Is centrumgebied 's-Gravenzande a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, centrumgebied 's-Gravenzande comes out at 30 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 centrumgebied 's-Gravenzande?
In centrumgebied 's-Gravenzande the police recorded 97 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (30 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 centrumgebied 's-Gravenzande calculated?
centrumgebied 's-Gravenzande 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 centrumgebied 's-Gravenzande 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.
