Heerlen-Centrum, Heerlen
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Dautzenbergstraat is a generous 137 m², which is 44% larger than the average in the neighbourhood. Built in 1919, it has an F energy label, something to factor in for heating costs. At €245,000, the price is slightly below the neighbourhood median of €249,500, making it a keen option compared to other apartments in Heerlen.
Heerlen-Centrum is a very strongly urban area with over 2,950 addresses per km². The population is diverse: many single-person households and a significant share of residents aged 65+. One resident describes it as safe if you know your way, but notes crime and poverty are visible. They say: "I think Heerlen is becoming more modern every year, but it remains my crack neighbourhood." The review reflects a neighbourhood in transition, with efforts to modernise but persistent social challenges. The municipality Heerlen is working on improvements.
For groceries, you have Jumbo just around the corner, Jan Linders a couple of streets away, and Albert Heijn and Aldi within a five-minute walk. Primary school Basisschool Eikenderveld is a five-minute walk, and secondary schools like Katholieke School voor Pro are also within walking distance. The train station is a ten-minute walk, and a park is just around the corner for a quick break.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including De Jonge Makelaardij and Pararius.

Personally, I think it's a safe neighbourhood, but that's because I know where I can go and what I'm allowed to do. If I were new here, I wouldn't feel so safe. You can encounter strange people here and experience situations that don't happen just like that outside this area. There is a lot of crime, from young to old, and if you pay close attention, you can see a lot of it. On top of that, there is simply a lot of poverty here. I see more people on benefits than working, and with each year, more and more homeless people. I see that they are trying their best to modernise the city. They are doing quite well at that, but... take the Aurora flats, for example. They've painted them all nice colours now, but that doesn't mean you've removed the ghetto. The same junkies and dealers still live in the flats as before. And I still wouldn't recommend walking alone in the dark. I think Heerlen is becoming more modern every year, but it remains my crack neighbourhood. Accessibility is fine, but we still don't have things like e-scooters or e-steps. Tram or metro. I can understand the tram and metro, but we are really lagging behind when it comes to e-scooters, etc. A few years ago, we only got those bikes you can rent... and then they basically showed that we can't handle that responsibility at all here. We destroy everything here that has any money in it or doesn't belong to us.

About Dautzenbergstraat 28B, Heerlen
The asking price of €245,000 is slightly below the neighbourhood median of €249,500 and the average of €254,054. Given the larger floor area (137 m² vs 95 m² average), the price per m² is about €1,788, which is well below the neighbourhood average of €2,968 per m². However, the F energy label means higher energy costs, so factor that in.
