It's not the worst neighbourhood, but certainly not the best either. It's easily accessible thanks to the bus stop and there is a primary school. The area doesn't feel very safe, but things are regularly organised in the neighbourhood. It's also quite green because of the surrounding forests, including the Brunssummerheide. The housing is good, but it depends on which part of the neighbourhood you're in. It's a fairly dirty neighbourhood, not much attention is paid to hygiene. It's not very safe either, but it's not unsafe either; furthermore, it has all the facilities you need: clothing shops, supermarket, hairdresser, etc.

About Heideveldweg 25, Heerlen
The asking price is €625,000, which is 201% above the average neighbourhood asking price of €207,955. However, this home is much larger than typical: 292 m² versus an average of 140 m². The price per square metre works out at about €2,140, compared to the neighbourhood average of €1,763. So you're paying a premium for size, but it's in line with what you'd expect for a home of this scale.
The home has energy label C, which is average for the neighbourhood, 45.5% of homes in Heksenberg have label C, and another 45.5% have a lower label. A C label means the home is reasonably efficient, but you can expect moderate energy costs. It's not as efficient as a modern A-rated home, but it's better than many older properties in the area.
One resident says the area "doesn't feel very safe, but it's not unsafe either." In the most recent data, there were 94 total crimes reported in the neighbourhood.
