In reports there is mention of theft from cars. At weekends sometimes fireworks from LHC. The municipality does a lot of maintenance on greenery, truly fantastic.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt was once a nice neighbourhood but not anymore. Nothing is being fixed in the apartment, it's draughty everywhere and damp, nothing is done about it, yet paying almost 800 euros. At the front, rats are running around, people have had rats on their balcony, the weeds are very high, almost up to the balcony.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice, cosy, quiet neighbourhood! There is no nuisance from young people, which makes living here much more pleasant! Access to nice eateries, supermarket, public transport. There are plenty of places to walk the dog in the woods or let the dog off the lead in a park. Every Saturday there is a large market where you can eat all sorts of things.

About Berghofstraat 66, Eygelshoven
At €160,000, this apartment is the cheapest of the nine homes currently for sale in Eygelshoven-Kom. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €303,056, so this one is 47% below that. However, the floor area of 75 m² is also 61% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 193 m². The price per square metre works out at about €2,133, compared to the neighbourhood average of €1,787 per m², so while the total price is low, you're paying a bit more per square metre.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age (built in 1973). In the neighbourhood, 27.3% of homes have label C, while 54.5% have a lower label (D or worse). Label C means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier, you can expect moderate energy costs, but nothing extreme.
Residents describe it as quiet and cosy, with no trouble from young people. There's a Jumbo supermarket within a five-minute walk, a GP practice and primary school nearby, and a train station about 800 metres away. The neighbourhood also has parks and woods for walking the dog, and a weekly market on Saturdays. One review mentions good access to eateries and public transport.
Some reviews mention theft from cars and occasional fireworks from a local club. One resident reports poor maintenance of apartment blocks, with draughts, damp, and rats on balconies, though this seems specific to certain buildings. The municipality does maintain the greenery well, according to another review.
