Heerlen-Centrum, Heerlen
NeighbourhoodThis listing does not state a house number, property type, floor area, year of construction or energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €1,221 per month, the rent is 12% below the neighbourhood average of €1,383, which makes it a keen price compared to other rental homes in Heerlen.
Heerlen-Centrum is a densely built-up area with 2,835 residents, mostly single-person households (1,570). One resident describes it as a safe neighbourhood but notes: "You can encounter strange people here and experience situations that don't happen just like that outside this area. There is a lot of crime, from young to old." The same resident adds: "I see more people on benefits than working, and with each year, more and more homeless people." Based on one review, the neighbourhood scores a 7 out of 10. The municipality Heerlen is working on modernising the city, but the resident feels the area still has a way to go.
For daily groceries, Jan Linders is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away. There are also several schools nearby: the VWO of Bernardinuscollege is a couple of streets away, and Basisschool Sint Tarcisius is a ten-minute walk. The train station is a ten-minute walk, and a park or public garden is just around the corner.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Rotsvast Maastricht.

Personally, I think it's a safe neighbourhood, but that's because I know where I can go and what I'm allowed to do. If I were new here, I wouldn't feel so safe. You can encounter strange people here and experience situations that don't happen just like that outside this area. There is a lot of crime, from young to old, and if you pay close attention, you can see a lot of it. On top of that, there is simply a lot of poverty here. I see more people on benefits than working, and with each year, more and more homeless people. I see that they are trying their best to modernise the city. They are doing quite well at that, but... take the Aurora flats, for example. They've painted them all nice colours now, but that doesn't mean you've removed the ghetto. The same junkies and dealers still live in the flats as before. And I still wouldn't recommend walking alone in the dark. I think Heerlen is becoming more modern every year, but it remains my crack neighbourhood. Accessibility is fine, but we still don't have things like e-scooters or e-steps. Tram or metro. I can understand the tram and metro, but we are really lagging behind when it comes to e-scooters, etc. A few years ago, we only got those bikes you can rent... and then they basically showed that we can't handle that responsibility at all here. We destroy everything here that has any money in it or doesn't belong to us.
