Giezenveld, Heerlen
NeighbourhoodThis terraced house on Pattonstraat sits in a quiet corner of Giezenveld, with a remarkable plot of 4025 m², that's a rare find in Heerlen. The home itself is 110 m², built in 1964 and has an A energy label, so it's efficient. At €780 per month, the rent is in line with what you'd expect for a social-housing terraced house in this part of town. Compared to other terraced houses in Heerlen, the price is keen given the generous outdoor space.
Giezenveld is a leafy, family-friendly neighbourhood with plenty of playgrounds and greenery. Two residents reviewed it: one says it's "a quiet area with lots of greenery and playgrounds, making it quite attractive for young families," while another calls it "a familiar, pleasant and safe neighbourhood." Both mention good amenities within walking distance. The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many families and older residents. It's not the liveliest spot, but for peace and quiet with everything you need nearby, it works well. That's the Giezenveld neighbourhood in a nutshell.
Your daily routine here is easy: grab bread at Albert Heijn (a couple of streets away), drop the kids at RKBS De Windwijzer or OBS de Tovercirkel (both just around the corner), and you're set. For secondary school, Grotiuscollege is a ten-minute walk. There's a park or public garden on your doorstep, and a bus stop nearby, though the train station is a bit further out. The municipality keeps the greenery tidy, so the streets feel well-maintained. The municipality of Heerlen manages the area well.

Giezenveld is a neighbourhood I look back on with mixed feelings. On the one hand, it's a quiet area with lots of greenery and playgrounds, making it quite attractive for young families. There are quite a few amenities nearby: a supermarket, schools within walking distance, and good connections to the centre of Heerlen. The bus stops are close by and usually on time, making it easy to stay mobile without a car. As for safety, I generally feel fine, although there have been moments when it felt less pleasant, especially in the evenings. It depends a lot on which street you live on. The community is quite mixed: some neighbours are very friendly and involved, while others are very private. There isn't a lot of social cohesion, but if you take the initiative yourself, you can build something up. Hygiene varies; some streets are well-maintained, others less so. You do see the municipal services regularly coming by to maintain the greenery. Overall, it's not a neighbourhood with much nuisance, but it's also not the most bustling or lively place. For those looking for peace and quiet with all basic amenities nearby, Giezenveld is a fine place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's Heerlen, a neighbourhood where you never hear anything positive about liveability, safety and well-being, but luckily I still find Giezenveld (where I live) a familiar, pleasant and safe neighbourhood. Plenty of playgrounds for children, various supermarkets within walking distance and good accessibility with several buses per hour going along different sides.
