I think safety in Gieten is very poor, many young people are very antisocial. I don't dare go out alone (as a girl) in the evening/night. The community is unsociable, arguments break out quickly and the youngsters are terribly antisocial. There are hardly any facilities, there is nothing for young people to do. There are a few shops and 1 snack bar & 2 pizzerias. Accessibility is fine in itself, you can easily get to public transport by bus. By car it's even easier. Education is very extensive for 1 village. There are 2 primary schools, 2 childcare centres and 1 secondary school.

About Stationsstraat 117, Gieten
The asking price of €695,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €626,036 and the median of €600,000. However, this home is larger (231 m²) than the average sold home (263 m²) and is a detached house, which typically costs more. The price per m² works out to about €3,009, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €2,892 per m². Given the size and type, the price is in line with the market.
The home has an energy label B, which means it's reasonably energy-efficient. You can expect lower energy bills compared to older homes with labels D or lower. In the neighbourhood, 42.9% of homes have label A, 7.1% label B, and 35.7% label C, so this home is above average in efficiency.
The nearest train station is 15 km away, so this home is not ideal for daily commuting by train. You would need a car or bus to reach the station.
Reviews are mixed. One resident describes the neighbourhood as "cosy" with a WhatsApp group and friendly neighbours. Another mentions safety concerns and antisocial behaviour from young people. It's a quiet village with a mix of ages, but the experience may vary by street.
Yes, there are two primary schools within walking distance: Kindcentrum De Marke (362 m) and Bonnerschool (783 m). For secondary education, Dr. Nassau College is about 1 km away. The village also has childcare centres and a secondary school, so education options are good.
Lidl is just 147 m away and Jumbo is 237 m, so daily groceries are very convenient. There's also a restaurant 0.6 km away and a park 0.5 km from the home. For more extensive shopping, you may need to drive to nearby towns.
Safety perceptions vary. One resident rated safety as poor, citing drug dealing and noise from young people. Another felt safe enough to have a neighbourhood watch. The total number of crimes in the area is 148, but without a per-capita figure, it's hard to compare. It's best to visit at different times to get a feel.
