In 2023, police in Legemeer registered 1 traffic accidents, of which 1 with injury and none fatal.
Registered accidents (BRON, Rijkswaterstaat); material-damage-only accidents have not been systematically registered since roughly 2010 and are not comparable between areas. This area shows only accidents with an exactly known location (roughly 80-85% of all registered accidents); the rest is known only at street, intersection or gemeente level. The comparison with the gemeente therefore also uses only the gemeente's exactly-located accidents, which is why that figure is lower than on the gemeente's own page.

Agricultural land is the largest land use in Legemeer, covering 59% of the area, against 52% in De Fryske Marren. Green space such as parks, sports fields, forest and nature covers 39% of the area, 32 percentage points above the 7% in De Fryske Marren.
39% of the area is green (parks, sport, nature), against 7% in the municipality of De Fryske Marren.
Every share is calculated as a percentage of the TOTAL area (land and water together, peiljaar 2022); water is therefore one of the slices itself, not a separate whole. Green is the sum of recreational terrain (parks, sport fields, allotments, day recreation) and natural terrain (forest, open natural terrain) — agricultural land is not counted as green here.
