Living in Hazenkamp, Nijmegen

Hazenkamp is nestled between Goffertpark and the older city districts south of the centre, and you can feel that in the character of the neighbourhood. It is quiet without being boring: wide streets with mature trees, terraced houses and detached homes from the 1930s and 1940s, and a mix of residents ranging from young families to retirees. The largest age group is 25 to 45 years, but the over-45s are well represented, giving the neighbourhood a certain stability. 67% of residents have a high level of education and the labour participation rate is 67%.

Goffertpark is the green backbone of the neighbourhood. Residents use it daily: joggers, dog walkers, families on the playground and people just wanting to unwind. Fer describes the neighbourhood as "perfect for young families and full of nature and cosy spots" and adds that it is "nicely quiet but not silent". That is exactly the balance many buyers are looking for. Yvon, who lives with friends close to Goffertpark, confirms that picture: "Very pleasant atmosphere in the neighbourhood, with many amenities nearby."

For daily groceries you are well served: there are several supermarkets within cycling distance, and along Groesbeekseweg and towards Molenweg you will find shops, coffee bars and small eateries. For a larger range of shops, the city centre of Nijmegen is about ten minutes away by bike. Goffertbad, the indoor swimming pool on the edge of the park, is a concrete asset for families with children.

Schools are well represented. There are two primary schools in the immediate vicinity and a secondary school within walking distance. Fer rates the education with a 9.0 and speaks of "excellent education". The sub-score for education in the resident reviews stands at 9.0, which is above average for an urban neighbourhood.

Accessibility by bus is reasonable: several bus lines connect Hazenkamp with the centre and Nijmegen Central Station. By bike you are there in a quarter of an hour. Motorists have a quick connection to the A73 and the rest of the road network via Graafseweg and Groesbeekseweg. Residents give accessibility an 8.2, the lowest sub-score, suggesting that public transport to some destinations takes a bit more effort.

Compared to neighbouring communities, Hazenkamp has its own identity. The nearby neighbourhood Goffert is somewhat more urban in character, while Sint Anna is more on the quiet, green side. Heijendaal attracts a different audience due to its proximity to Radboud University. Hazenkamp sits in between: green and quiet, but with enough going on. More neighbourhood data and all resident reviews can be found on the Hazenkamp neighbourhood page.

Who is a home in Hazenkamp interesting for?

Hazenkamp primarily appeals to young families: the combination of good schools, the park and the relatively quiet streets makes the neighbourhood attractive for people with children. Movers who want to make the step from an apartment elsewhere in Nijmegen to a single-family home will find what they are looking for here, although they must reckon with an average purchase price of over €440,000 and a tight market. Overbidding is not uncommon in this neighbourhood. First-time buyers with a limited budget have a harder time, although the lower end of the market (from €190,000) still offers entry opportunities for smaller apartments. Those who would rather try out the neighbourhood first can also look at rental homes in Hazenkamp as an intermediate step.

What residents say about Hazenkamp

Residents give Hazenkamp an average of 8.8 out of 10, based on four reviews. The highest sub-scores are for safety (9.5) and green space (9.0), which fits well with the character of the neighbourhood. Housing scores the lowest at 7.8, which may be related to the high prices and limited supply. Yvon writes: "Plenty of supermarkets, Goffertbad, shops, schools and coffee bars in the neighbourhood. Close to the city centre, yet a nice district where I feel welcome as a student." All reviews and sub-scores can be found on the neighbourhood overview page.
