Where to exercise caution in the Netherlands
It’s important to note that the Netherlands is generally a safe country, and violent crime is relatively rare compared to many other countries. However, exercising caution in the areas and for the reasons mentioned here can help minimise the risk of becoming a victim of crime.
Amsterdam: While generally safe, like any major city, Amsterdam experiences crime. Pickpocketing is common, particularly in central areas, around the Central Station, and in tourist hotspots like the Red Light District, Bloemenmarkt, and near the Anne Frank House. Some sources mention the Oude Zijde (Red Light District) and areas around the Zeedijk as having a higher incidence of theft and petty crime.
Rotterdam: Similar to Amsterdam, Rotterdam is generally safe, but visitors to some areas should remain cautious. Charlois, especially areas around Zuidplein, Zuiderpark, and Zuidrand, has historically had higher crime rates. Rotterdam Centraal station and the surrounding streets are also areas where pickpocketing is a concern.
The Hague: As a diplomatic centre, The Hague requires heightened security awareness, particularly for diplomats and those in the vicinity of embassies and international institutions.
