I have a good experience with my neighbourhood. Everything is within walking or cycling distance. Lots of students and young families, very nice. It's always lively, but not (too) busy. Just a relaxed atmosphere. Sometimes it feels a bit unsafe in the evening, I think that's because of the homeless people who then move out of the city centre. I find that less pleasant.

About Semmelinkstraat 16, Nijmegen
The asking price of €360,000 is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €386,741 and the median of €375,000. However, the apartment is 63 m², which is 53% smaller than the average home in Bottendaal (134 m²). On a per-square-metre basis, the price is about €5,714, which is above the neighbourhood average of €4,971. So it's priced at a premium for its size, reflecting the desirable location.
The energy label is C, which is average for an older home. In Bottendaal, 43.5% of homes have label C, and 26.1% have D or lower. A C label means the home is reasonably efficient, but you can expect moderate energy costs. It's not as efficient as a modern A-rated home, but it's better than many pre-war properties in the area.
