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 van Goorstraat 30, Nijmegen
The asking price is 18% below the average asking price in Bottendaal (€386,741), which makes it look keen. However, the floor area of 72 m² is 46% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 134 m², so the lower price partly reflects the compact size. Compared to other apartments in the area, it is priced competitively for its square metres.
The home has energy label D. In Bottendaal, 26.1% of homes have label D or lower, while 43.5% have label C. Label D means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so heating costs are likely to be higher than in a modern home. You can expect to spend more on energy bills compared to a home with a better label.
Residents give mixed feedback. One review mentions feeling a bit unsafe in the evening because of homeless people moving out of the city centre. Another says the atmosphere is relaxed and not too busy. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 226, but without a per-capita figure it is hard to compare. Overall, the area is lively and popular, but it pays to be aware of your surroundings at night.
The nearest train station is 1.0 km away, about a ten-minute walk. The city centre is within walking or cycling distance, as residents note.
The floor area is 72 m², which typically accommodates two to three rooms, but you would need to check the exact layout with the agent.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The plot size is not given, so it is unclear whether there is any private outdoor space. You would need to confirm this with the agent.
