Everything for children close by, and little room
The average property value in Nico Bergsteijn is exactly at the national median, a rarely exact middle for the component that carries the most weight in the wealth & income pillar. That the pillar still comes out at a 5.1 is down to the rest: a social assistance rate more than twice the national level and a top income group thinner than average.
On safety, burglary is the outlier, with more than twice as many reported offences as in the median neighbourhood, while violence stays far below the median. The total number of reported offences is lower than nationally.
Everything a household needs daily is within six hundred metres: supermarket, GP, restaurant and primary school. That produces an 8.8 for amenities and lifts the families pillar to an 8.9.

Frequently asked questions

How much crime is there in Nico Bergsteijn?
In Nico Bergsteijn the police recorded 48 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (17 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 Nico Bergsteijn calculated?
Nico Bergsteijn scores 8.5 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 Nico Bergsteijn 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.
