NeighbourhoodA grand apartment on the Nieuwe Markt
This apartment on the Nieuwe Markt sits right in the heart of Nijmegen, with the lively Grote Markt just a few steps away.

The asking price of €575,000 is 18% above the neighbourhood average of €486,789, which is on the high side, but then you are paying for a home that is 49% larger than the typical Benedenstad apartment.

The Benedenstad neighbourhood

Families with children are fewer (210 households). The neighbourhood has a high crime count (360 incidents), but it is also where you find the city's main squares, restaurants and bars. There are no resident reviews available for this area, so this description is based on CBS data. The Benedenstad neighbourhood is compact and walkable.

Frequently asked questions
About Nieuwe Markt 90, Nijmegen
Is €575,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price is 18% above the average asking price in Benedenstad (€486,789). However, this apartment is 49% larger than the neighbourhood average (158 m² vs 106 m²). Given the size and central location, the price is on the high side but reflects the extra space.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is D. This is an official registration from EP-Online. Label D is in the middle of the scale; it is less efficient than labels A-C, so you can expect moderate energy costs.

Experiences from Nijmegen-Centrum
How residents experience their district
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.

Auto-translated to English by AIMy 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 AII lived here for 25 years with great pleasure, but in recent years it has become very different. Previously, everyone knew each other and greeted each other. For the elderly, the front path was cleared when it snowed, errands were done, etc. If I hadn't seen someone for a while, I would go and ask how they were. And now... you hear that people lie dead in their homes for 4 weeks and no one notices. Pff, but luckily I'm not like that and I remain loyal to my neighbourhood and go and check in. But unfortunately, the sense of community is completely gone. Now new people move in and you don't even know their names. Very sad. I wish the old days could come back.
