Heerlerheide-Passart: green and spacious, but not without rough edges
Residents of Heerlerheide-Passart give their neighbourhood a 6.7 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl, based on three reviews. That score actually tells the story of this neighbourhood perfectly: it's okay, but not for everyone. What stands out is that accessibility scores the highest at 8.0. The neighbourhood is conveniently located relative to the A76 and bus connections towards the centre of Heerlen are reasonable. Education and amenities both score 7.3, which fits a neighbourhood with primary schools and a shopping centre within walking distance.
The plus points are clear. One resident writes: "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 walk straight into the countryside." That's true. Especially towards the Passart neighbourhood, you'll find green avenues and a rural atmosphere you wouldn't expect in Heerlen. Cornelius Park and the area around the church offer space, although according to another resident, these places are "dirty during holiday periods, with full bins and food scraps by the benches." The cleanliness score of 5.3 is therefore the lowest of all categories.
Then the social side. Heerlerheide-Passart has a strong ageing population: the largest age group is 65-plus, with 1,570 residents. Almost half of the households are single-person. Not everyone experiences the mutual atmosphere as warm. One resident describes the behaviour as "quite unfriendly" and feels that older people are "pushed aside." Another is outright negative about the youth and social issues. The community score of 6.3 and the safety score of 6.3 confirm that picture: it's not an unsafe neighbourhood, but social cohesion is mixed. Anyone considering renting in Heerlerheide-Passart would do well to also check the detailed reviews and neighbourhood data on the neighbourhood page. In Heerlerheide Kom, you'll find a bit more bustle around the shopping area, while Passart is quieter and greener.

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
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.
