Table explanation


This table contains information about the average distances for residents of the Netherlands from their home address to the nearest facilities (e.g. school, GP or library). The table also includes information about the number of facilities located within a certain distance from the residential address. These data are calculated as an average over all persons in the area.
The data is available per municipality at district and neighbourhood level, as of 1 January.

Data available for 2021

Status of the figures:
The figures in this table are final until reporting year 2022.
From reporting year 2023 on, the figures will first be published as preliminary.
Once all variables in a reporting year have been published as preliminary, they will be made final at the next publication moment.

Changes per April 2025
The data on the proximity of jobs have been removed from the table. The source file for this facility has changed as of reporting year 2021, meaning that the location of a significant proportion of jobs is no longer known. Due to this change, the proximity of jobs can no longer be calculated with the same accuracy as in previous years.

When will new figures be released?
For the near future, no new figures are expected for this table.

Leisure and culture
Museum
A museum is a permanent institution at the service of society and its development, open to the public, not aimed at making a profit, which acquires, preserves, scientifically researches, presents and informs about the material testimonies of man and his environment for purposes of study, education and pleasure.

From 2015 onwards, new (stricter) criteria are applied to museums. These criteria are:
- The museum has a permanent location, is open permanently and is freely accessible at least 28 weeks a year and three days a week.
- The museum is not for profit, or is an institution or foundation for public benefit (ANBI).
- The museum has its own collection and conducts research into the collection in order to disseminate knowledge about it.
- The museum has a website or can be accessed via referral on a larger platform.

Please take this trend break into account when interpreting the data, especially when comparing various years before and after 2015.

The locations of the museums in 2006 are not available at Statistics Netherlands. That’s why the museums from 2005 have been used as the best approximation for the distances to museums in 2006.

As of the reporting year 2013, all museums in a partnership have been included (provided they meet the above criteria). In the years prior to 2013, only one museum per partnership was included in the population. As a result, the populations from 2013 onwards have increased by a few dozen more museums.
