Meerssen is a neighbourhood of contrasts, as two residents describe. One 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. 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." The neighbourhood scores a 7.44 out of 10 from two reviews. It's a moderately urban area (920 addresses per km²) with a mix of ages and household types. For more context, see the municipality Meerssen.
For your morning bread run, Lidl is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. Jan Linders and Jumbo are also within a ten-minute walk. Families with children have several primary schools nearby: Basisschool De WereldSter is a five-minute walk, and Basisschool de Lindegaerd is just around the corner. For secondary education, Stella Maris College is a ten-minute walk. The train station is also just around the corner, handy for commutes.

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. There is a train station and several bus stops, including a neighbourhood bus.
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 Sint Josephstraat 92, Meerssen
The asking price of €385,000 is 23% below the neighbourhood average of €502,483, and also below the median of €422,000. Given that the house is 128 m² (33% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 191 m²), the price per m² works out to about €3,008, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €3,170 per m². So it's priced keenly for its size.
The home has energy label C. That means it's reasonably efficient, not the best, but far from the worst. You can expect moderate energy bills. In the neighbourhood, 58.6% of homes have a label D or lower, so this one is above average in efficiency.
Residents give mixed views. One says social safety varies greatly from street to street, with drug labs busted in some streets but large villas in others. Another mentions crime has reduced safety, and there are loitering youths. The total number of crimes in the neighbourhood is 255, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to compare. It's worth visiting at different times to get a feel.
