I notice that in our area there is quite often nuisance from homeless people or loitering youths. I hear from the older residents in the neighbourhood that they don't like to go out alone because they don't feel very safe. I don't experience this myself, but I grew up in Heerlen and I can definitely stand my ground. Overall, it's reasonably quiet in the neighbourhood. Apart from a few incidents. I think it's a pleasant neighbourhood because it's easily accessible to the supermarket, the centre, the station, etc. I must admit, though, that when it's dark I also prefer not to walk alone. The hygiene in the neighbourhood could, in my opinion, be much better. The bins are often overflowing and smell very bad, and as a result you see rats and such more often. And as for greenery, I find it quite disappointing here. Many trees have been removed, etc. There used to be much more green and nature.

About Oude Kerkstraat 84A, Heerlen
The asking price of €247,500 is below the neighbourhood average of €261,346 and the median of €259,000. Given the 121 m² floor area, the price per m² works out at about €2,045, which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €2,331 per m². So it is priced keenly compared to other homes currently for sale in Schandelen.
The home has energy label B, which is efficient. In the neighbourhood, most homes have older labels: 58% are D or lower, and only 17% have A+. So this house performs better than average in terms of energy efficiency, meaning lower heating costs compared to many other homes in the area.
One resident mentions that there is nuisance from homeless people and loitering youths, and that older residents do not feel safe going out alone. The same resident, however, feels safe because they grew up in Heerlen. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 86, but without a per-capita figure it is hard to compare. It is a mixed picture.
The neighbourhood has a high proportion of single-person households (605 out of 965 households). There are 165 households with children and 195 without. The age spread is fairly even, with a slight tilt towards older residents: 435 are 65 or older, while 400 are between 25 and 45. So you will find a mix of ages and household types.
