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.

Agricultural land is the largest land use in Broekpolder, covering 40% of the area, against 18% in Vlaardingen. Green space such as parks, sports fields, forest and nature covers 49% of the area, 25 percentage points above the 24% in Vlaardingen.

Land use

  • Other built-up0.6%
  • Recreation19.6%
  • Agriculture39.7%
  • Forest and nature28.9%
  • Water7.5%
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.

Passenger cars by fuel type

100% of passenger cars do not run on petrol (diesel, LPG, electric etc.), against 20% in the municipality of Vlaardingen (2025).

  • Other fuel (diesel, LPG, electric etc.)100%
Explanation

CBS splits passenger cars into 'petrol' and 'other fuel' only. That second category bundles diesel, LPG, electric (including hybrid), hydrogen, alcohol, LNG and CNG together — CBS publishes no separate electric-car count per buurt, wijk or gemeente, so this is not the same as an 'electric share'.

Source: CBS Kerncijfers wijken en buurten (KWB) 2025

Share on other fuel per year

The share of passenger cars not running on petrol went from 0% to 100% between 2014 and 2025.
