Stadscentrum, Nijmegen
NeighbourhoodThis 1886 apartment in Nijmegen's Stadscentrum has a real city pulse. At 61 m² with an energy label G, it's a compact home that needs some love. The asking price of €249,000 is well below the neighbourhood average of €520,219, making it a keen entry point into the market, especially compared to other apartments in Nijmegen.
The Stadscentrum is lively and dense, with over 9,900 residents packed into a very urban setting. Most households are single-person, and the average age skews young. Reviews reflect the trade-offs: one resident says, "It's nice to live in the centre. Close to everything you need. Only often rubbish on the ground." Another notes, "Plenty of amenities and nice but small parks," but also mentions "a lot of trouble from certain people." The neighbourhood Stadscentrum is vibrant but not without its challenges.
Daily errands are a breeze: Ekoplaza is on your doorstep, PLUS and Albert Heijn are just around the corner, and Coop is a couple of streets away. For school runs, Basisschool Petrus Canisius is a five-minute walk, and Karel de Grote College is a couple of streets away. The municipality Nijmegen keeps the centre well connected, with a train station a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Disveld Makelaardij and 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 van Welderenstraat 38A, Nijmegen
The asking price is 52% below the neighbourhood average of €520,219, which is striking. However, the home is compact at 61 m² and has an energy label G, meaning higher heating costs. The median price in Stadscentrum is €350,000, so this is on the low end. Given the condition and label, the price seems keen but realistic for a buyer willing to invest in upgrades.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, so you can expect high energy bills. In Stadscentrum, only 16.2% of homes have a label D or lower, so this apartment is less efficient than most. The 1886 construction means it likely has single glazing and poor insulation. Budget for significant heating costs and consider improvements.
The Stadscentrum is very central with supermarkets like Ekoplaza, PLUS, and Albert Heijn within a few minutes' walk. There are also many restaurants and a park just around the corner. However, residents mention issues with rubbish and homeless people, especially around Molenpoort. It's a lively area with a young population, but not without some nuisance.
Basisschool Petrus Canisius is a five-minute walk away, and Karel de Grote College is a couple of streets away. The Stedelijk Gymnasium Nijmegen is about a ten-minute walk. For younger children, there are several day-care centres within walking distance.
Nijmegen train station is about 1 km away, a ten-minute walk. Cycling in the centre can be tricky due to pedestrians on the streets.
The neighbourhood recorded 3,233 total crimes, which is high for a small area. Residents mention issues with homeless people begging and occasional bike vandalism. Police and enforcement are seen regularly, but some feel more intervention is needed.
