Good · 2 residents
In the neighbourhood there are many groups of residents living together, including foreigners but also Dutch families. Social safety can vary greatly from street to street. For example, drug labs have been busted in one street, while in another street there are large villas. So there is a big contrast. The people in the neighbourhood are very sociable and like to chat. There is sometimes litter on the street, but there are cleaning services. There is nothing in the neighbourhood, and in the surrounding area there are small parks. There is a secondary school and a primary school, as well as nursery and preschool care that are mainstream and generally rated well. There is a train station and several bus stops, including a neighbourhood bus.
Auto-translated to English by AIMeerssen is a nice neighbourhood where I have lived all my life. But in Meerssen itself there is also a lot of crime, which has reduced social safety. In Meerssen, more and more people with a non-Western background have come to live. In Meerssen, there are mainly many elderly people, but there are also streets where more households with young children live, and there are also some loitering youths on the streets. In my opinion, more attention could be paid to safety in Meerssen, and more things should be arranged for young people so that they do not just hang around on the streets and cause nuisance.

About Veeweg 18, Meerssen
The asking price of €695,000 is 38% above the neighbourhood average of €502,483, so it's on the high side. However, this is a detached house on a large plot, and such properties are rare in Meerssen. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €3,170, and this home has 212 m², which would give a rough average of €672,000, so the price is above that too. It's a premium for a historic home.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age. In the neighbourhood, 27.6% of homes have label C, while 58.6% have D or lower. Label C means the home is reasonably efficient, but you can expect moderate energy costs. It's not as efficient as a modern home, but better than many older properties.
The house was built in 1884, making it one of the older homes in Meerssen, 36.7% of homes in the neighbourhood were built before 1945. An older home often has character but may require more upkeep, especially for things like the roof, windows, and plumbing. The energy label C suggests some modernisation has been done, but it's worth budgeting for ongoing maintenance.
Residents give mixed views on safety. One review mentions that social safety varies from street to street, with drug labs busted in some streets while others have large villas. Another resident says crime has reduced social safety and that more attention could be paid to it. The total number of crimes in the neighbourhood is 255, but without context it's hard to compare. It's a neighbourhood of contrasts.
The train station is 0.9 km away, about a ten-minute walk. There are also several bus stops, including a neighbourhood bus. The address density is 920, which is moderately urban, so you'll have reasonable public transport options.
There is a secondary school, Stella Maris College, just 242 m away, a couple of streets. For primary education, Basisschool De WereldSter is 1.2 km away (a ten-minute walk), and Basisschool de Lindegaerd is 1.5 km away. There's also a nursery and preschool care within 0.8 km. All are mainstream and generally well-rated according to residents.
Lidl is the nearest supermarket at 723 m, just around the corner. Jumbo is 1.5 km away, a ten-minute walk. There are also PLUS and Albert Heijn within 2.6 km. For daily shopping, Lidl is very convenient.
The plot is 770 m², which is large, so there is certainly outdoor space. However, the listing does not explicitly mention a garden, terrace, or balcony.
