Living in Passart, Heerlen
Passart is a quiet, green neighbourhood on the edge of Heerlerheide, with a distinct character that you won't quickly forget once you cycle through it. The district was largely built in the 1970s and 1980s, with a mix of terraced houses, semi-detached houses and a few detached homes. The streets are wide, the gardens are spacious, and mature trees line the roads, giving the neighbourhood a mature, understated appearance. It is not a neighbourhood that stands out for architectural peculiarities, but rather for the space you experience there.
If you love greenery, you are in the right place here. From Passart, you can walk into the countryside in a few minutes, towards the extensive green zones around Heerlerheide. Resident J. Offermans describes it aptly: "If you love nature and peace and quiet, you are 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. Ideal for the dog or an evening walk!" That peace and quiet is one of the most appreciated aspects of Passart, and this is also reflected in the resident scores for greenery (7.0) and accessibility (8.5).
In terms of amenities, Passart is reasonably self-sufficient for daily shopping. In the immediate vicinity you will find supermarkets and primary schools. For a wider range of shops, the Heerlerheide shopping centre is within easy reach. Passart borders the neighbourhood Heerlerheide Kom, where more shops and amenities are concentrated. Accessibility by car is good thanks to the proximity of the A76, and the bus connection to Heerlen city centre is also acceptable. Heerlen city centre is about a ten-minute drive away. Residents therefore give accessibility a remarkably high score of 8.5 out of 10.
At the same time, Passart is not a neighbourhood that suits everyone. The scores for safety (6.5), beauty (5.5) and housing (5.5) are moderate. Resident Nienke gives the neighbourhood a 5.2 and is critical of nuisance and the behaviour of young people. Such comments are heard more often in neighbourhoods with a high proportion of social housing and a relatively low labour participation rate (46%). The average income of €23,600 per year is significantly lower than the Heerlen average of €31,100. This colours the social composition of the neighbourhood, although residents' experiences vary.

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.
