About Veemarkt 135, Nijmegen
The asking price of €350,000 is 31% below the average asking price in Benedenstad (€506,579). However, this apartment is also 33% smaller than the neighbourhood average (70 m² vs 105 m²). So the price per square metre is actually in line with the market, you're paying for a compact home in a prime city-centre location.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home built in 1987. You can expect moderate energy costs, not as low as a modern A-label, but far from the high bills of an old uninsulated property. In the neighbourhood, most homes have label B or C, so this is typical for the area.
Nijmegen train station is 1.2 km away, about a ten-minute walk. That makes it easy to reach Arnhem, Utrecht or Amsterdam without needing a car.
The nearest supermarket is SPAR at 382 m, just a couple of streets away. Coop is 701 m (a five-minute walk), and there's an AH to go at 752 m. For organic shopping, Ekoplaza is 870 m away.

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.
