Living in Heerlerheide Kom: village character with urban amenities
Heerlerheide Kom is the old heart of Heerlerheide, a former mining village that is now part of the municipality of Heerlen. That village character is still palpable. Around the Sint-Josephkerk and Corneliuspark you will find the centre of the neighbourhood, with a square where elderly people sit on benches and children play. The buildings largely date from the first half of the twentieth century, with typical miners' houses and post-war terraced houses. Here and there, homes have been renovated, but you also see properties with deferred maintenance.
In terms of amenities, Heerlerheide Kom is reasonably self-sufficient. There is an Aldi on Ganzeweide and various small shops along Heerlerbaan. For a larger shopping offer, you can drive to shopping centre 't Loon in Heerlen-centre in five minutes. Primary school De Horizon is nearby and scores well with residents: education gets a 8.0 as a sub-score. Corneliuspark offers some green space, although the state of maintenance is a point of criticism.
One resident notes: "People are very focused on themselves. Elderly people are often pushed aside." The same resident indicates that the park and the square near the church, especially during holiday periods, suffer from overflowing bins, food scraps and cigarette butts. The sub-score for cleanliness is therefore a meagre 5.0. At the same time, accessibility scores a 7.0, and that is justified.

People 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.
