Living in Gendt: a village with character by the river
Gendt is nestled between the Waal and the Linge, and this river landscape is not just a backdrop but a daily reality for residents. The village has a distinct village character, with a close-knit community that explains the high resident score of 9.0 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl. Resident B. Sweeren aptly describes Gendt as "almost the perfect neighbourhood" and emphasises mutual involvement: "When we need each other, we are there." This sense of togetherness is something rarely found in larger cities.
The scores per category are telling. Accessibility and green spaces both score a 10, beauty likewise. Safety and community spirit score a 9. Only housing scores lower (6), which residents probably link to the limited supply and rising prices. In terms of amenities, Gendt has its own village centre with daily shopping facilities, a GP practice and primary schools. For more extensive shops and facilities, residents go to Bemmel or Nijmegen. There is plenty to do sport-wise: football club SV Gendt and various other associations ensure an active club life.

For whom is buying in Gendt a good choice?
Gendt mainly attracts families and movers who are looking for space and are willing to live a bit further from the city. The average sale price of over €543,000 makes the village less accessible for first-time buyers, although homes from €275,000 can be found at the lower end of the market. In addition to the purchase price, take into account additional costs such as transfer tax (2% for non-first-time buyers) and notary fees. Supply is limited and homes often sell quickly.
