How the neighbourhood rates living here
Bar = place among all Dutch neighbourhoods, from the lowest figure to the highest. Grey = the middle half of neighbourhoods, tick = the national figure.

23.8% not (very) satisfiedNetherlands 88.1% · 11.9 pt

Share of adults in the neighbourhood who are (very) satisfied, RIVM Health Monitor 2024. The bar lines the neighbourhood up against all 11,734 neighbourhoods with a figure in the monitor: half of them sit between 87 and 93 percent, so a few points move a neighbourhood from the middle to the tail. "Not (very) satisfied" is neutral and dissatisfied together, because the monitor does not publish those two separately. A neighbourhood average, so it says nothing about this particular home.

Liveability class: more than sufficient

Leefbaarometer 3.0 (Dutch Ministry of the Interior / RIGO), 2024 edition. The scale is by definition a deviation from the national average: 0 IS the Netherlands, and that is the tick on the bar. The bar itself is the place among all neighbourhoods, because they do not sit symmetrically around zero: the same small minus is mid-pack on one sub-scale and the tail on another. A model score for the whole neighbourhood, not a measurement at this address. Resident mix stays grey: a different population is not better or worse, only different.
