Bleijerheide, Kerkrade
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Erfweg sits in Bleijerheide, a neighbourhood that feels a world away from the bustle. At €782 a month, the rent is noticeably below the average for apartments in Kerkrade, which makes it a keen option for those who qualify for social housing. For context, apartments in Kerkrade typically go for around €899.
Bleijerheide is a mixed bag, according to the three residents who reviewed it. One calls it a "beautiful neighbourhood close to Germany with all the advantages" and a "very quiet neighbourhood with nice houses". Another describes it as "fine", noting it's "never really busy", though they mention "occasional arguments" and that "rubbish bags are just dumped everywhere". A third review is far more critical, citing drug activity and a feeling that the municipality has let things slide. The neighbourhood has a mix of families and singles, with a slightly older population. The Bleijerheide neighbourhood has an address density of 1794, so it's fairly urban but not overwhelmingly so.
For your morning bread, PLUS and Aldi are both just around the corner, and Jumbo is a ten-minute walk away. Basisschool Bleijerheide is on your doorstep, and there are two other primary schools within a couple of streets away. The nearest secondary school is about a ten-minute walk. A park or public garden is just around the corner, and the train station is a couple of streets away. The municipality of Kerkrade covers the wider area.

Nice, very quiet neighbourhood with nice houses
Auto-translated to English by AIRight from the start, men were busy using drugs. The municipality of Kerkrade did little with the police, and it hasn't helped at all; drug dealers are still active. Luckily, we are now in a safe place where you can go for a walk without worry. The municipality of Kerkrade is driving families away from Kerkrade and prefers Ukrainian people over their own Dutch people. It would be good if Russia dropped a bomb on the town hall of Kerkrade; then maybe something good would come back in its place.
