Never any trouble and always quiet on the street
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience is quiet and not too many problems
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople with a low level of education who are on welfare and may or may not earn extra cash under the table. They have no understanding for people with a disability. People who swear at you and have a big mouth, and rubbish is dumped, making the street dirty. Not a neighbourhood for people with autism, Down syndrome, etc., because if you have that, you're made out to be crazy while they don't even really get to know you. And a lot of antisocial behaviour here, which creates an unsafe living environment. The housing association should be honest about the fact that Heilust is known as a deprived area. I was told this by mental health services when I already lived there. I would have liked to know about the situation before I moved in, because now, as a woman with autism, I'm stuck in a hopeless situation that I can no longer cope with. Heemwonen is very unfriendly to customers. That should be much better.

About Kasperenstraat 153, Kerkrade
At 232 m², the price per square metre is around €1,056. That is on the high side compared to other apartments in Kerkrade, but the large floor area is unusual for an apartment. The F energy label means higher energy costs, which may affect the overall value.
Heilust is a quiet residential area with a mix of ages. Some residents praise the peace and quiet, while one review warns of antisocial behaviour and a lack of support from the housing association. It is worth reading the full reviews to get a balanced picture.
The nearest train station is 3 km away, so you would need a bike or car to reach it.
Basisschool De Schakel is 403 m away, and Basisschool De Doorkijk is 550 m away. There are also special education schools within 1.2 km. Secondary education is 3.9 km away.
The energy label is F, which is inefficient. You can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a home with a better label. The exact costs depend on usage and energy prices.
The listing does not mention a garden or terrace. The plot size is not stated, so it is unclear if there is any private outdoor space. A park is 0.2 km away.
