Stadscentrum, Nijmegen
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Raadhuisstraat sits right in the lively Stadscentrum, where the streets buzz with shops, cafés and people. At 72 m² with an energy label D, it's a compact city home from 1956. The asking price of €349,000 is well below the neighbourhood average of €520,219, making it a keen option compared to other apartments in Nijmegen.
The Stadscentrum is dense and urban, with over 9,900 residents and a very high address density. Most households are single-person, and the population skews young, lots of students and people in their twenties. Reviews reflect the trade-offs of city living: one resident calls it "nice to live in the centre. Close to everything you need," but notes "often rubbish on the ground" and nuisance from homeless people. Another says it's "lively" with "plenty of amenities and nice but small parks," though they mention mice and vandalism. A third simply says "a lot of trouble from certain people." Based on four reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 6.07 out of 10. For more context, see the neighbourhood Stadscentrum.
Daily errands are easy: an Ekoplaza is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn and PLUS are a couple of streets away. For school runs, Basisschool Petrus Canisius is a five-minute walk, and the Karel de Grote College is about ten minutes on foot. The train station is a ten-minute walk, and the city's restaurants and parks are all within a few minutes' stroll. The municipality Nijmegen offers a compact, walkable urban environment.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Soeteman Makelaars and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

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 Raadhuisstraat 18, Nijmegen
The asking price of €349,000 is 33% below the average asking price in the Stadscentrum (€520,219) and almost exactly matches the median asking price of €350,000. Given the 72 m² floor area and energy label D, it's priced keenly compared to other apartments in the neighbourhood.
The energy label is D. In the Stadscentrum, most available homes have a better label (over 50% are A or A+), so this apartment may have higher energy costs than average. Label D is typical for a 1956 building without major modernisation.
Residents mention mixed experiences: some appreciate the central location and amenities, but several note issues with rubbish on the streets, homeless people begging, and occasional nuisance. Police and enforcement are seen often, but some residents feel more intervention is needed.
Basisschool Petrus Canisius is 409 metres away (about a five-minute walk), and the Karel de Grote College (secondary) is 646 metres away. There are also several other primary and secondary schools within a kilometre.
The train station is 1.0 km away, about a ten-minute walk. The neighbourhood is very accessible by public transport, according to residents.
Ekoplaza is 288 metres away, Albert Heijn 365 metres, and PLUS 378 metres, all within a few minutes' walk. There are also SPAR and Coop within 500 metres.
The Stadscentrum has very few families (only 210 households with children out of over 7,600). The apartment is 72 m² with one bedroom (typical for the area), so it's more suited to singles or couples than families with children.
