The average WOZ value in the neighbourhood is €216,000, clearly lower than the district average for Roermond-Oost (€229,000) and well below the municipal average for Roermond (€289,000).

My apartment is okay. The neighbourhood is not. The neighbourhood is easily accessible from several places. Many access roads to the neighbourhood. No social cohesion. A lot of rubbish on the street. The green spaces are not bad, but could be better. Where there are grass fields, more trees and wildflowers could be planted. That is good for the bees and butterflies.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here my whole life and I must say I find it a pretty nice neighbourhood. It's nice and quiet here and it borders the city centre, which is very handy. There is a shopping centre and primary and secondary school within walking distance. Many of the houses are a bit dated, but they are being renovated bit by bit to make them future-proof again. It can become unsafe in the evenings and at night because loitering youths from the Componistenbuurt come here. It is also clean here and the lawns are well maintained. As I said, it is well connected to the city centre and also to, among others, the retail park, Donderberg, the outlet and the thrift store. The people here are friendly. That's about it, I think, a nice neighbourhood with some points for improvement here and there.
