Malpertuis is a dense, urban area, very strong city feel with over 2,500 addresses per km². The population is diverse: lots of singles, a fair share of students, and many older residents. One resident sums it up: "Nice neighbourhood, but not for families with young children, often bothered by drug deals, too many students, more maintenance of green spaces and parks needed." That's based on a single review, so take it as one perspective. The neighbourhood Malpertuis has its ups and downs, but it's certainly not dull.
For your morning bread, SPAR express is just around the corner, and AH XL is a five-minute walk away. There are also Jumbo, Aldi and PLUS within easy reach. Schools are close too: Islamitische Basisschool El Habib is a couple of streets away, and Basisschool Het Mozaïek is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Maastricht keeps the neighbourhood well connected, with a park just a couple of minutes' walk away.

About Forcadentstraat 50B, Maastricht
The price is €249,000 for 83 m², which works out to about €3,000 per m². That's a typical rate for an apartment in Maastricht, especially one with energy label C. Without specific neighbourhood sale prices in the data, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not out of line with what you'd expect.
Malpertuis is very urban, with a high density of addresses. It's a mix of students, singles and older people. One resident mentions issues with drug deals and a need for better maintenance of green spaces, but also gives the neighbourhood a 7 out of 10. It's lively, but not for everyone.
The nearest train station is 4.2 km away. That's a bit of a distance, so you'd likely need a bike or bus to get there. The bus network in Maastricht is decent, but specific lines aren't listed here.
SPAR express is just around the corner (630 m), and AH XL is about 800 m away. Jumbo, Aldi and PLUS are also within a kilometre, so daily shopping is easy on foot or by bike.
At 83 m² with one review noting the neighbourhood isn't ideal for families with young children, it might not be the best fit. The area has many students and some reported nuisance. But the apartment itself has decent space for a couple or single person.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home from 1959. It means the insulation and heating are reasonable, but not top-notch. You can expect moderate energy costs, though exact amounts aren't given.
