A dot (.) means the publisher published no figure for that year. It is not a zero.
How to read these figures
- A registered crime is a crime the police recorded in an official report, after someone reported it or on their own initiative. It covers offences in the Criminal Code and in special laws such as the Opium Act, the Road Traffic Act and the Weapons and Ammunition Act.
- The counts include attempts. For some crimes, such as murder and manslaughter, that gives a much higher number than the crimes that were completed.
- Since July 2018 one registration holds one crime. Before, when one registration held several related crimes, only the most serious was counted. Some kinds rose from 2018 because of this, mainly trespass, special laws, weapons trade, drug trade, public order offences and other social integrity offences. The publisher puts the effect on the total for 2018 at about 0.5%.
- The publisher gives every year for the areas as divided in 2025.
- Sexual offences, child pornography and child prostitution are not published in this table, because of the risk of identifying people. A figure the publisher marks as unknown, not reliable enough or confidential is not published either.
- The publisher revises the figures regularly, for example after municipalities merge, so they can differ slightly from earlier publications.
- The publisher says the 2025 figure for fireworks is not final: many incidents were still to be counted as crimes afterwards, in the first half of 2026.
- These are the police's figures. They differ from the crime statistics of Statistics Netherlands (CBS) because of other filtering, other categories and because they include crimes registered by the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee.
- The total is the publisher's own. Huisly adds no kinds of crime together and computes no rates.
