We asked people if there is a lot of crime. They answered...

"The Netherlands has generally low crime rates compared to other European countries. However, it is not completely exempt from criminal activity and certain areas experience more instances of crime than others. Drug-related offenses, property theft, and vandalism are some of the most common crimes in The Netherlands. The overall rate of crime has steadily declined in recent years as The Netherlands has implemented more effective law enforcement initiatives," said another expat in Netherlands.
