Passart is a neighbourhood with two very different faces, based on two reviews. One resident says: "If you like nature and peace and quiet, you're in the right place here. The neighbourhood is super clean and spacious with lots of trees and parks. You can easily walk into the countryside. Ideal for the dog or an evening stroll!" Another resident is less positive: "Yes, here you have all neighbourhoods with poverty scroungers and benefit claimants. Those people cannot appreciate the 'normal' houses and their residents. The youth is extremely antisocial, the streets always smell of cannabis plantations, and it's filthy." With an average score of 6.75 out of 10, it's a mixed picture. The neighbourhood has around 2,000 residents, many of whom live alone, and a good share of families with children.

About Cookstraat 157, Heerlen

Given the size and location, the price seems reasonable, though the energy label suggests you should budget for higher energy costs.

Auto-translated to English by AIPeople are very self-centred! Elderly people are often pushed aside. Safety is there, but during holiday time the square and park are dirty, Corneluspark and near the church. Bins are full halfway through the week. Food scraps near the benches, cigarette butts everywhere. My dog was very ill from something like weed. Chicken bones are often thrown in the park. Even in the dog exercise area in Corneliuspark. The exercise area is damaged, holes everywhere, while on the Rennemig there is a nice exercise area with high fences. This is what I experience. Kind regards

How residents experience their municipality
In the neighbourhood there are many cultured people, very cosy! The only downside is that there are also antisocial people living here.. and they don't give a damn about anything or anyone.. there is little parking space right in front of my door, which is really not pleasant, the neighbourhood itself is quite close-knit and everyone enjoys chatting with each other during New Year's or a summer day. There is hardly any greenery here and there, some bushes here and there but that's about it.. luckily they are busy renovating and greening the part where we live, so that's something I consider a plus point for the neighbourhood. Unfortunately, it's often the case that houses have overdue maintenance due to landlords or people who simply don't care about what their house looks like.
Auto-translated to English by AIWell, the paving stones could be laid properly and the gardens maintained, and those pesky oak trees could be removed and replaced with nice shrubs.
