Everything close by, little to spend
Rarely does a neighbourhood sit as precisely on the Dutch average as Rijsbergen. The share of top incomes, the share of low incomes, the greenery within three hundred metres and the water surface all four sit practically exactly on the national median. Anyone wanting to know what an ordinary Dutch neighbourhood looks like should look here.
Two things do deviate, and they point against each other. Property value is above the national median, but so is the social assistance rate — well above it — and vacancy slightly so. That holds the wealth & income pillar at 5.7, lower than the house prices suggest.
Among the offences, burglary is the only item above the national median; violence, theft and vandalism stay below. The families pillar stops at 5.8: the primary school is almost a kilometre away and a quarter of residents are 65 or older.

Frequently asked questions
Is Rijsbergen a safe neighbourhood?
For 2025, Rijsbergen comes out at 19 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is fewer than in most Dutch neighbourhoods. The figure is about what the police record, not about the people who live there.
How much crime is there in Rijsbergen?
In Rijsbergen the police recorded 105 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (19 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 Rijsbergen calculated?
Rijsbergen scores 7.4 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 Rijsbergen 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.
