Bottom 10% in the Netherlands

Everything close by, little to spend

Hogenkamp scores a 9.3 for amenities and a 3.2 overall. That gap is the story: the supermarket, GP and restaurant are within walking distance, but on each of the four other pillars the neighbourhood stays below the national median.

All four crime types are above the median, with property crime the largest item and vandalism second. Wealth & income comes to a 3.0, weighed down above all by social assistance: more than six percent of residents live on it, a multiple of the national median. Anyone looking for a primary school here walks a kilometre, while almost two thirds of households are single-person — so that distance affects only a small share of residents, even though it does drag the families score down.

Frequently asked questions

Is Hogenkamp a safe neighbourhood?

For 2025, Hogenkamp comes out at 43 recorded crimes per 1,000 people present; the national middle is 24. That is high: Hogenkamp is among the 20% of Dutch neighbourhoods with the most recorded crimes. 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 Hogenkamp?

In Hogenkamp the police recorded 194 crimes in 2025: theft, burglary, violence and vandalism combined. The comparison figure above (43 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 Hogenkamp calculated?

Hogenkamp scores 3.2 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 Hogenkamp 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.
