Living in Hazenkamp, Nijmegen

Hazenkamp is a quiet, green neighbourhood in the southern part of Nijmegen, directly bordering the Goffertpark. The housing stock largely consists of spacious single-family homes and detached houses from the 1950s and 1960s, with a limited number of apartments. The streets are wide, there is plenty of greenery, and it is remarkably quiet for a neighbourhood so close to the city centre. This contrast makes Hazenkamp attractive, but also explains the high WOZ values and rental prices.

Resident Fer describes it as: "Perfect for young families and full of nature and cosy spots. The shops are nearby, it's nice and quiet but not silent." That sums it up well. Hazenkamp has a strong neighbourhood feel without being village-like. The average income of €45,600 per year is significantly higher than the Nijmegen average of €35,100, and 67% of residents have a high level of education. The labour participation rate of 67% is also high. This is reflected in the streetscape: well-maintained gardens, active residents, and little vacancy.

Accessibility

By bus, there are connections to the centre and Nijmegen station, from where trains run to Arnhem, Den Bosch and beyond. By car, the connection to the A73 and A15 is relatively quick via Graafseweg or Neerbosscheweg. Parking in the neighbourhood is still possible in most streets with a permit or sometimes without, although parking pressure increases closer to the park. Those considering renting an apartment in Hazenkamp would do well to check the parking situation per address.

The neighbourhood borders Goffert, which is slightly more compact and urban in character, and Sint Anna, which has more of a new-build profile with more recent apartments. Heijendaal is also popular with renters, particularly due to its proximity to Radboud University. Those considering renting a home in Hazenkamp but unsure about the price level may find alternatives in these neighbourhoods with a slightly different atmosphere and rental price range.

Is renting in Hazenkamp right for you?

Hazenkamp particularly attracts families, dual-income couples and professionals seeking peace and greenery without leaving the city. The largest age group is 25-45 years, but the 45-65 group is also well represented. With 33% married households and a relatively high income level, this is not a typical student neighbourhood, although Yvon, as a student, feels welcome "among the families". The share of single-person households (1,090) is also considerable, indicating a mixed composition. For those looking for a rental home in the private sector, it is wise to respond quickly: supply is limited and the average rental period can be found at the top of the page. Also register with a housing association if social housing is an option, although waiting lists in Nijmegen are long. As an alternative, it is also worth checking the supply of homes for sale in Hazenkamp.
