Noise (Lden, all sources), NO₂ and fine dust are the RIVM classes per neighbourhood, as Atlas Leefomgeving bands them. Crime is the number of police-registered offences in the last twelve months, as a band against every neighbourhood in the Netherlands: fewer than most, typical, or more than most.

Go further on the map

On the map you trim this reach by what matters to you: noise, nitrogen dioxide, fine dust, summer heat, flood chance and police-registered crime per neighbourhood, and by walking distance to a supermarket, gym, doctor or pharmacy, pool, library, school, church, mosque or bar. Up to four destinations at once, each with its own way of travelling and time limit. One filter is everyone's; combining them is Plus.

How this is computed

The reach is the real public-transport travel time by timetable, walking to and from the stop included, to arrive at Utrecht Centraal around nine on a weekday. The homes are today's listings on the Dutch housing sites WaarThuis follows, counted per CBS neighbourhood; the median is the asking price. The comparison with Utrecht sets the reach against every rental in the municipality of Utrecht today.
