I think safety in Gieten is very poor, many young people are very antisocial. I don't dare go out alone (as a girl) in the evening/night. The community is unsociable, arguments break out quickly and the youngsters are terribly antisocial. There are hardly any facilities, there is nothing for young people to do. There are a few shops and 1 snack bar & 2 pizzerias. Accessibility is fine in itself, you can easily get to public transport by bus. By car it's even easier. Education is very extensive for 1 village. There are 2 primary schools, 2 childcare centres and 1 secondary school.

About Hees 8, Gieten
The asking price of €429,000 is 31% below the average neighbourhood asking price of €626,036. However, this home is also smaller than average (118 m² vs 263 m²). Compared to similar homes in the area, the price per m² is about €3,636, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €2,892 per m². So while the total price is lower, you are paying a premium per square metre.
The home has energy label A, which is very efficient. In the neighbourhood, 42.9% of homes have label A, so this home is in line with the best-performing properties. You can expect relatively low energy costs.
The nearest train station is 15 km away, so this is not a location for daily train commuting. A car or bus is needed for longer journeys.
Reviews are mixed. One resident says the neighbourhood is 'cosy' with a WhatsApp group and friendly neighbours. Another mentions issues with antisocial young people and noise. It is a village with a mix of ages, but the experience may vary by street.
Yes, there are two primary schools within walking distance: Kindcentrum De Marke (777 m) and Bonnerschool (1.2 km). The Dr. Nassau College secondary school is 1.6 km away. Education options are good for a village this size.
Lidl is 714 m away and Jumbo is 817 m, both within a short walk. For more variety, you would need to travel further, but daily groceries are easily covered.
The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 148, but without context per capita it is hard to judge. One resident rates safety as poor, while another feels safe enough to have a neighbourhood watch. It is best to visit at different times to get a feel.
