Volewijck is one of Amsterdam's 110 official wijken (CBS/gemeente boundaries). CBS (Statistics Netherlands) recorded 742 registered crimes here in 2025 across a population of 9,470 residents — a rate of 7,835 crimes per 100,000 residents, roughly 0.5× the citywide average, below it. This rate is calculated against registered residents, not footfall, so a busy shopping, transit or tourist area (like the city centre) can read higher without that meaning it is unusually risky to walk through, and a quiet residential wijk can show a low rate simply by having few offences relative to its population. This is Wandroz's official-data layer for Amsterdam — real CBS crime and population statistics, not a qualitative or press-based judgment — and the source data does not distinguish day from night, so both figures shown here are the same.

Frequently asked questions
Is Volewijck safe?
Wandroz currently rates Volewijck in Amsterdam as relatively safer than most other neighbourhoods in Amsterdam. This rating is derived from CBS (Statistics Netherlands)'s official registered-crime statistics — an official statistic, not an assessment. High-footfall tourist, transit or shopping areas can read higher on this kind of measure without that meaning elevated risk per visit, since these statistics are normalised against registered residents rather than footfall — see the note on this page and the methodology page for the full caveats. The source data has no day/night breakdown, so this single rating applies at any time of day rather than being a distinct night-specific figure.
Does Volewijck's rating differ between day and night?
No — Volewijck's source data has no time-of-day breakdown, so the same rating (relatively safer than most other neighbourhoods in Amsterdam) is shown for both day and night rather than Wandroz inventing a separate night figure it doesn't actually have.
Is Volewijck a good area to stay in as a tourist?
Volewijck's day rating (relatively safer than most other neighbourhoods in Amsterdam) is the more relevant one for typical daytime tourist activity; check the night rating too if you'll be out late. The Booking.com link on this page searches Volewijck itself.
Is there official crime data for Volewijck?
