Living in Nijmegen-Midden: between Goffertpark and the city centre
Nijmegen-Midden is a district with many faces. You have the green, quiet streets around Hazenkamp and Goffertpark, and the busier parts towards Heijendaal with student housing and the university campus. Residents rate the district a 7.7 out of 10 on Buurtje.nl based on 12 reviews. Notably high scores are for accessibility (8.2) and safety (8.0). Resident Fer writes: "Very nice, the shops are nearby, it's nice and quiet but not dead. There are a few nice restaurants and the park is an ideal recreation spot." That mix of tranquillity and accessibility is exactly what many buyers are looking for here. On the district page of Nijmegen-Midden you can read all resident reviews and district data together.
In terms of amenities, you are well catered for. In the Hazenkamp neighbourhood you will find a Lidl and various specialist shops, and along the Graafseweg there are several supermarkets. There are two primary schools in the district and the Stedelijke Scholengemeenschap Nijmegen (secondary school) is within walking distance. Goffertpark offers space for jogging, walking or playing with children, although resident Roos warns that festivals regularly take place in the stadium: "Nice neighbourhood, but a lot of festival-goers." That is something to consider if you want to buy near de Goffert.
Accessibility is a strong point. Nijmegen Goffert station is located in the district and takes you to Nijmegen Central in a few minutes. Bus lines on the Graafseweg and St. Annastraat connect you to the city centre and to districts such as Oud-West and Nijmegen-Zuid. The A73 is accessible via the Neerbosscheweg within ten minutes. At the same time, it is not all roses: long-term resident Diana notes that mutual involvement in some neighbourhoods is declining. "Previously everyone knew each other and greeted each other, for the elderly people the front path was cleared when it snowed," she writes, but that feeling has diminished according to her. Social cohesion therefore varies per street and per neighbourhood. More information about the municipality can be found on the website of the municipality of Nijmegen.

I 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.

Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice, the shops are nearby, it's pleasantly quiet but not silent. There are also a few nice restaurants and the park is an ideal recreational place. There are 2 primary schools and 1 secondary school in my neighbourhood, and the education at all schools is excellent. There are enough bins and the hygiene on the streets is very good. There are many one-way roads, so the neighbourhood is a bit of a maze, but easily accessible via the main roads.

Auto-translated to English by AII live with a few friends near Goffertpark. Very pleasant atmosphere in the neighbourhood, with many amenities nearby. Plenty of supermarkets, Goffertbad, shops, schools and coffee shops in the area. Close to the city centre, yet a nice district where I feel welcome as a student among many families and couples.
