NeighbourhoodThis mid-terrace house on Burgemeester Wilmarstraat sits in a neighbourhood where contrasts are part of the character, one street may have large villas, another may have had a drug lab bust. The people here are sociable and like to chat. At €325,000, the asking price is 35% below the neighbourhood average of €502,483, which makes it a keen option compared to other terraced houses in Meerssen.
Based on two reviews, residents describe Meerssen as a mixed neighbourhood with a big contrast between streets. One resident says: "In the neighbourhood there are many groups of residents living together, including foreigners but also Dutch families. Social safety can vary greatly from street to street. For example, drug labs have been busted in one street, while in another street there are large villas. So there is a big contrast. The people in the neighbourhood are very sociable and like to chat." Another adds: "Meerssen is a nice neighbourhood where I have lived all my life. But in Meerssen itself there is also a lot of crime, which has reduced social safety." The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many elderly residents and some families with young children. The municipality Meerssen is home to about 5,570 people, with a relatively low urbanity score (4 out of 5, meaning not very urban).
For your daily shopping, Lidl is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. There are also Jan Linders and Jumbo within easy reach. Basisschool De WereldSter is on your doorstep, and Stella Maris College secondary school is a couple of streets away. A train station is a ten-minute walk, and there are several bus stops nearby. A park or public garden is a five-minute walk, and a restaurant is just around the corner.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Absoluut Makelaardij and Pararius.

In the neighbourhood there are many groups of residents living together, including foreigners but also Dutch families. Social safety can vary greatly from street to street. For example, drug labs have been busted in one street, while in another street there are large villas. So there is a big contrast. The people in the neighbourhood are very sociable and like to chat. There is sometimes litter on the street, but there are cleaning services. There is nothing in the neighbourhood, and in the surrounding area there are small parks. There is a secondary school and a primary school, as well as nursery and preschool care that are mainstream and generally rated well.

Auto-translated to English by AIMeerssen is a nice neighbourhood where I have lived all my life. But in Meerssen itself there is also a lot of crime, which has reduced social safety. In Meerssen, more and more people with a non-Western background have come to live. In Meerssen, there are mainly many elderly people, but there are also streets where more households with young children live, and there are also some loitering youths on the streets. In my opinion, more attention could be paid to safety in Meerssen, and more things should be arranged for young people so that they do not just hang around on the streets and cause nuisance.

About Burgemeester Wilmarstraat 3, Meerssen
The asking price of €325,000 is 35% below the neighbourhood average of €502,483, which makes it look keen. However, the floor area of 120 m² is 37% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 191 m², so the price per square metre is actually €2,708, compared to the neighbourhood average of €3,170 per m². So you are paying less per square metre than the local average.
The energy label is D. This is a common label for a house built in 1956. It means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In the neighbourhood, 58.6% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is typical for the area.
Residents mention that social safety varies greatly from street to street. One review notes that drug labs have been busted in one street, while another street has large villas. Another resident says crime has reduced social safety. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 255, but without a per-capita figure it is hard to compare. It is a mixed picture.
The neighbourhood has a mix of residents: many elderly people, but also streets with young children. There are 740 households with children out of a total of 2,745 households. There is a primary school (Basisschool De WereldSter) on your doorstep and a secondary school (Stella Maris College) a ten-minute walk away, plus nursery and preschool care nearby.
The train station is 0.9 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. There are also several bus stops, including a neighbourhood bus, so public transport is well within reach.
The plot size is 180 m², but the listing does not specify whether there is a garden.
