Stadscentrum, Nijmegen
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Hertogstraat puts you right in the thick of Nijmegen's Stadscentrum. With an energy label E, it's a bit of a fixer-upper in terms of efficiency, but the price reflects that: at €365,000, it's 30% below the neighbourhood's average asking price of €520,219, making it a keen entry into the market for apartments in Nijmegen.

It's nice to live in the centre. Close to everything you need. Only often rubbish on the ground. Otherwise, it's all well organised with how the rubbish is collected and such. Could do more about the homeless people, who are quite numerous, sometimes causing a bit of nuisance because they are always begging in the centre. Especially around Molenpoort it's bad. Could do with more intervention as far as I'm concerned. Not nice if you can't walk without being asked for change. You do see police and enforcement quite often in the neighbourhood, but it could be a bit more. Education is not really in the neighbourhood. It's very accessible by public transport, cycling is sometimes a bit difficult since everyone walks on the street in the centre, also outside pedestrian areas (Molenstraat and Zierikstraat). A minor irritation sometimes.
Auto-translated to English by AII live in a student house with 8 nice housemates, a reasonably decent house but plagued by mice. Albert Heijn around the corner. But many homeless people there. Also, my bike was vandalised once. Otherwise, plenty of amenities and nice but small parks.

About Hertogstraat 32, Nijmegen
The asking price of €365,000 is 30% below the neighbourhood average of €520,219, and also below the median of €350,000? Actually, it's slightly above the median. Given the energy label E and the 79 m² floor area, the price per m² is about €4,620, which is below the neighbourhood average of €6,201 per m². So it's priced keenly compared to other listings, but the energy label may mean higher running costs.
The energy label is E, which is below average for the neighbourhood: only 16.2% of homes have label D or lower. An E label means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a home with a better label. It may also affect mortgage options, as some lenders require a minimum label.
The neighbourhood has a high number of reported crimes (3,233 total), and reviews mention issues with homeless people and begging, especially around Molenpoort. One resident says: "You do see police and enforcement quite often, but it could be a bit more." Another mentions a bike being vandalised. It's a busy city centre, so some nuisance is to be expected.
You have several supermarkets within walking distance: Ekoplaza at 358 m, Albert Heijn at 404 m, and PLUS at 468 m. Primary schools include Basisschool Petrus Canisius (508 m) and OBS De Buut (666 m). Secondary schools like Karel de Grote College (702 m) and Stedelijk Gymnasium Nijmegen (884 m) are also close. The train station is 1 km away, and there are parks and restaurants nearby.
The train station is 1 km away, about a ten-minute walk. The neighbourhood is very accessible by public transport, as one resident notes. The high address density suggests good connectivity.
The neighbourhood has a young population: 45% are aged 25-45, and 37% are 15-25. Most households are single-person (60%). Only 25% of homes are owner-occupied, so many residents rent. The area is popular with students and young professionals due to its central location.
In the past year, 252 homes were sold in the neighbourhood, with an average time on market of 57 days. That's about two months, which is fairly typical for a city centre. The current listing count is 57, so there is a reasonable supply.
