My neighbourhood is nice. There are kind people around you and you have people from young to old. There are shops nearby that I can quickly get to as a student, and homes that aren't too expensive.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere is a nasty woman who would interrupt you easily because she is obsessive and wants everything to be in accordance with her interests and favourite.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for a while now and it's a nice neighbourhood. It's a cosy part of Nijmegen with a section that has several supermarkets. Only amenities like Lidl or an optician would be nice if they were a bit closer. I also notice, when it comes to housing, that it's incredibly difficult to get another home. I'm a qualified nurse and am starting a master's in September and am looking for an apartment with my best friend; unfortunately, this is very difficult and we've been searching for a long time. Furthermore, it's nice that there are several buses here, you're close to the Waal beach and schools. In short, it's a very nice neighbourhood to live in, and I hope I can continue living here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are never any unpleasant situations here and it's a friendly neighbourhood where everyone greets each other. Plenty of parking spaces and cats can also walk around peacefully.

About Koolemans Beynenstraat 130, Nijmegen
The asking price is 41% above the neighbourhood average of €423,140, but the apartment is also 60% larger than the typical home in Hengstdal (139 m² vs 87 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €4,280, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,553 per m². So while the total price is high, you're getting significantly more space for your money.
The energy label is D. This means the home is moderately efficient, you can expect reasonable but not minimal energy costs. In the neighbourhood, 37.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for a pre-war apartment. It's worth noting that the home was built in 1923, so insulation may not be as modern as newer builds.
Very convenient. The nearest Albert Heijn is just 375 metres away, a five-minute walk, and there's a PLUS at 451 metres. For a wider selection, another PLUS and a Coop are within 700 metres. So for bread, milk and groceries, you're well covered without needing a car.
There are several schools within walking distance. Pontem College (secondary) is just 194 metres away, and Montessorischool Nijmegen-Oost (primary) is 220 metres. Other primaries like Basisschool Klein Heyendaal and OBS De Muze are within 600 metres. So school runs are easy on foot or by bike.
The train station is 1.9 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. That makes commuting to Arnhem, Utrecht or beyond quite feasible. There are also several bus routes in the neighbourhood for alternative public transport.
The neighbourhood recorded 188 total crimes in the latest data, which is moderate for an urban area. Residents generally describe it as nice and cosy, though one review mentions a difficult neighbour. Overall, it's a typical city neighbourhood with a mix of quiet streets and busy spots.
Sold homes in the neighbourhood took an average of 27 days to sell, which is fairly quick. This suggests demand is healthy. With 25 apartments currently for sale, there is some choice, but larger apartments like this one (139 m²) are less common.
