Too few residents for a rate per resident: these are counts.

Hekslootpolder has too few residents for a reliable rate per 1,000 residents (under 200), so counts are shown instead of a comparison. In 2025, 7 crimes were registered, against 6 in 2021. Crimes are counted where they happen, not where the offender lives.

Traffic accidents by outcome

In 2023, police in Hekslootpolder registered 1 traffic accidents, of which 0 with injury and none fatal.

2022
2023
FatalInjuryMaterial damage only
Explanation

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.

Green space is below the Haarlem average.

Agricultural land is the largest land use in Hekslootpolder, covering 92% of the area, against 13% in Haarlem. Green space such as parks, sports fields, forest and nature covers 4% of the area, 11 percentage points below the 15% in Haarlem.

Land use

4% of the area is green (parks, sport, nature), against 15% in the municipality of Haarlem.

  • Traffic2.4%
  • Recreation3.6%
  • Agriculture91.6%
  • Water2.4%
Explanation

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.
