House prices and market figures for Eimersweide, Arnhem
The owner-occupied market in Eimersweide is limited in size, but that does not make the figures any less interesting. Of the 559 homes in the neighbourhood, only 31% are owner-occupied, while 69% are rented, the vast majority of which through housing associations. So anyone looking to buy a home here has relatively little choice. Over the past twelve months, 7 homes were sold, with an average sale price of €361,857 and a range of €275,000 to €649,000. With an average living area of 104 m², this works out at a price of approximately €3,480 per square metre. The WOZ value in Eimersweide is €248,000, which is higher than the average for the district Malburgen-Oost (Zuid) (€231,000), but significantly lower than the municipal average of €323,000 for owner-occupied homes in Arnhem as a whole. Sale prices are therefore considerably above the WOZ value, indicating that the market here is under pressure. See the current supply and average asking price at the top of this page for the most recent situation.
Living in Eimersweide, Arnhem
Eimersweide is a quiet, predominantly social residential neighbourhood in the southern part of Arnhem, sandwiched between the Pleijroute and the greener edges of Malburgen-Oost. The neighbourhood clearly bears the stamp of post-war urban expansion: many of the homes date from the 1970s and 1980s and consist mainly of porch flats, gallery flats and terraced houses. The architecture is functional, not spectacular, but the outdoor spaces and greenery between the blocks give the neighbourhood a certain openness that you miss in denser urban neighbourhoods.
Anyone living here has everything within cycling distance. The Immerloo pond and the surrounding greenery offer an easy escape for a walk or a run. For daily shopping, you can go to the supermarkets along the Westervoortsedijk or the nearby Kronenburg shopping centre, a few minutes away by bike. Primary schools are located in the immediate vicinity of the neighbourhood, and several secondary schools are accessible in Malburgen and Arnhem city centre.
Accessibility by car is good: the A325 and the connection to the A12 and A50 are reachable within a few minutes via the Pleijroute. By bus, you can quickly reach Arnhem city centre and Arnhem Central Station via several lines, from where intercity connections run to Nijmegen, Utrecht and beyond. By bike, you are in the city centre within a quarter of an hour.
Residents of Eimersweide describe the neighbourhood as quiet and green, but also as a place where the social composition is diverse and where not everyone knows each other. One resident writes: "It's nice and quiet here and everything is close by, but the neighbourhood could do with a bit more maintenance and attention." That picture fits the demographic data: the average income of €26,300 is below the Arnhem average, the labour participation rate is 54% and the proportion of highly educated people is relatively low at 19%. These are not reasons to avoid the neighbourhood, but factors to take into account if you are considering buying a home here. Compared to neighbouring neighbourhoods such as Immerloo I and Zeegsingel en omgeving, Eimersweide is somewhat more compact and has a slightly stronger housing association character. Neighbourhoods such as 't Duifje and Middelgraaflaan en omgeving offer a different living environment worth comparing. See the full neighbourhood page for all resident reviews and district data.
Who is buying in Eimersweide interesting for?
Eimersweide primarily appeals to buyers who consciously choose an affordable entry level in Arnhem-Zuid, with a lower threshold than in more popular districts such as the Spijkerkwartier or Arnhemse Broek. However, the average sale price of almost €362,000 is no longer a bargain here either, and the limited supply of owner-occupied homes means you have to act quickly when something becomes available. Movers looking for space and a quiet environment without the hustle and bustle of the centre can find what they are looking for here. Starters who are more flexible can also look at rental homes in Eimersweide as an alternative, given the large share of rental properties in the neighbourhood. Be honest with yourself: the buying framework here is narrow, so overbidding or making a quick decision is not exceptional in this segment.
What residents say about Eimersweide
Residents appreciate Eimersweide mainly for the peace and quiet, the green surroundings and the central location relative to the rest of Arnhem. Scores for accessibility and amenities generally come out more positively than scores for liveability and maintenance of public space. One resident sums it up aptly: "Nice that everything is close by and it's quiet, but the neighbourhood could do with a bit more zest and care."
