Street safety a top priority, but unclear where exactly it is unsafe

Following high-profile violent incidents in Amsterdam, street safety has become a top priority, yet research reveals that official data fails to clearly identify specific unsafe locations. Although a survey shows many residents avoid areas like city parks and specific squares, inconsistent reporting methods by the police and municipality make it difficult to accurately track and map these hotspots. The city is now working on a new reporting system to better analyze these safety concerns and improve targeted interventions.
