Heerlen-Centrum, Heerlen
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Honigmannstraat sits right in the heart of Heerlen, where the streets are lively and everything is close by. With 95 m² of living space, it's a good size for a couple or a small household. The rent of €2,500 is on the high side compared to other apartments in Heerlen, which average around €1,383.
Heerlen-Centrum is a dense, urban area with a very high address density. It's a place of contrasts: one resident describes it as safe if you know your way around, but notes that newcomers might feel less secure due to crime and poverty. The same resident acknowledges efforts to modernise the city, like the painted Aurora flats, but feels the underlying issues remain. Based on one review, the neighbourhood scores a 7 out of 10. The area has a high proportion of single-person households and a relatively older population. For more context, see the municipality Heerlen page.
For your morning bread, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn and Aldi are a couple of streets away. There's a primary school a five-minute walk away, and secondary schools are within a ten-minute walk. The train station is also a ten-minute walk, making it easy to get out of town. A park is just around the corner for a quick breather.
At the time of writing, this home is listed through several channels, including Phidec Vastgoed Beheer B.V. 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.
