Palmstraat 42
Passart, Heerlen
NeighbourhoodA quiet apartment in Passart
This apartment on Palmstraat sits in a calm part of Heerlen, surrounded by greenery and open space. At €190,000, the price is well below the neighbourhood average of €288,000, partly because the 90 m² floor area is 34% smaller than the typical home here. For context, apartments in Heerlen tend to be more compact, so this listing is keenly priced for its size.
The Passart neighbourhood
Passart is a mixed neighbourhood with a split personality, based on two reviews. One resident calls it a "decent neighbourhood" and says: "If you like nature and peace and quiet, you're in the right place here. The neighbourhood is super clean and spacious with lots of trees and parks." Another describes it as having "poverty scroungers and benefit claimants" and complains about antisocial youth and street smells. With 65% single-family homes and a mix of ages, the area has a suburban feel but also some urban challenges. The Passart neighbourhood is home to about 2,000 people, many of them families with children.
Life on the street
Daily errands are easy: Jan Linders, Albert Heijn and PLUS are all just around the corner, and Aldi is a couple of streets away. For schools, Kindcentrum Paulus is a five-minute walk, and RK BS De Ganzerik is also within easy reach. Secondary education is available at Emmacollege MAVO KBL BBL, about a ten-minute walk. The area has plenty of parks and green spaces, and the countryside is accessible for walks. The municipality of Heerlen offers further amenities like a library and restaurants within walking distance.

Frequently asked questions
About Palmstraat 42, Heerlen
Is €190,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €190,000 is significantly lower than the neighbourhood average of €288,000. However, the apartment is also smaller than average: 90 m² versus 137 m². The price per square metre works out at about €2,111, which is in line with the neighbourhood average of €2,102. So the price is fair for the size, but you are getting a compact home.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C. This is an official registration from EP-Online. Label C is in the middle of the scale, meaning the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy costs, though the exact amount depends on your usage and the heating system.
How is the neighbourhood for families?
Passart has a mix of residents, with about 325 households with children. There are several primary schools within walking distance, like Kindcentrum Paulus and RK BS De Ganzerik. The area has parks and green spaces, and one resident describes it as "super clean and spacious with lots of trees and parks." However, another review mentions antisocial behaviour, so it is a mixed picture.
What public transport is available?
The nearest train station is 3.3 km away, so it is not within walking distance but a short bike ride or bus trip.
How many rooms does the apartment have?
The floor area is 90 m², which typically accommodates two to three rooms, but you would need to check the layout with the agent.
Is there a garden or outdoor space?
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. The plot size is not given, so it is unclear if there is any private outdoor space. You would need to ask the agent for details.
Experiences from Passart
How residents experience their neighbourhood
If you like nature and peace and quiet, you're in the right place here. The neighbourhood is super clean and spacious with lots of trees and parks. You can easily walk into the countryside. Ideal for the dog or an evening stroll!
Auto-translated to English by AIYes, here you have all neighbourhoods with poverty scroungers and benefit claimants. Those people cannot appreciate the 'normal' houses and their residents. The youth is extremely antisocial, the streets always smell of cannabis plantations, and it's filthy.

Auto-translated to English by AIPeople are very self-centred! Elderly people are often pushed aside. Safety is there, but during holiday time the square and park are dirty, Corneluspark and near the church. Bins are full halfway through the week. Food scraps near the benches, cigarette butts everywhere. My dog was very ill from something like weed. Chicken bones are often thrown in the park. Even in the dog exercise area in Corneliuspark. The exercise area is damaged, holes everywhere, while on the Rennemig there is a nice exercise area with high fences. This is what I experience. Kind regards

Experiences from Heerlen
How residents experience their municipality
In the neighbourhood there are many cultured people, very cosy! The only downside is that there are also antisocial people living here.. and they don't give a damn about anything or anyone.. there is little parking space right in front of my door, which is really not pleasant, the neighbourhood itself is quite close-knit and everyone enjoys chatting with each other during New Year's or a summer day. There is hardly any greenery here and there, some bushes here and there but that's about it.. luckily they are busy renovating and greening the part where we live, so that's something I consider a plus point for the neighbourhood. Unfortunately, it's often the case that houses have overdue maintenance due to landlords or people who simply don't care about what their house looks like.
Auto-translated to English by AIWell, the paving stones could be laid properly and the gardens maintained, and those pesky oak trees could be removed and replaced with nice shrubs.
