Things to consider when looking for accomodation
- Rental prices are highest in the town centre, in the roads off St Annastraat, and around the university. Less central areas of Nijmegen are cheaper, as are the surrounding villages.
- Generally, rental prices quoted are exclusive of bills (gas, water, electricity etc). Bills will add up to around € 200-300 per month based on your usage and time of the year.
- Check advertisements carefully to see whether a property is being offered with furniture and appliances. In the Netherlands, most housing is rented unfurnished (ongemeubilieerd), and unlike in other countries this may mean that the house does not even contain light bulbs or flooring. In an unfurnished let, the most you will get is a hotplate for cooking and (if you are lucky) a refrigerator. ‘Gestoffeerd’ indicates that there are carpets, curtains and appliances. Furnished (gemeubilieerd) housing is less common, though sublet apartments are often rented out with the occupant’s belongings for periods of up to one year. It may be possible to ask the outgoing occupant if they are interested in selling their furniture/appliances to you.
- When an advertisement mentions the number of rooms (kamers), it refers to the living areas and bedrooms, not simply the number of bedrooms. This count doesn’t include the kitchen, bathroom, and utility areas, etc. So, a 3-kamer apartment would likely have 2 bedrooms and a living area, plus the kitchen and bathroom.
- Advertisements will also usually say how long the minimum or maximum contract is. ‘Under consideration’ means you can likely negotiate the contract length.
- Many apartments for rent in Nijmegen through agencies are also up for sale (a consequence of the economic climate). Make sure you clarify with the estate agent or landlord what will happen to your lease/notice period if your rented apartment sells while you are living there.

Neighbourhoods in Nijmegen
- Nijmegen-Centrum (central) is the historic heart of the town, enclosed by the river to the north, the railway line to the west and Oranjesingel/Sint Canisiussingel to the south-east. The area nearest the river is Benedenstad, the remainder is Stadscentrum.
- Nijmegen-Oost (east) includes the area just to the south of the town centre, where there are three adjacent neighbourhoods that are very popular with students: Bottendaal (west of St Annastraat); Galgenveld (between St Annastraat and Groesbeekseweg); and Altrade (east of Groesbeeksweg). These neighbourhoods have many large 19th century houses. Just to the east of the university campus is Groenewoud, a residential area built in the 1950s and ’60s. East of Altrade is quiet Hengstdal: smaller terraced houses and low-rise flats built between the wars. Furthest east is Kwakkenberg: large detached houses with gardens. North of Berg en Dalseweg is Hunnerberg, which has many larger houses and some blocks of flats.
- Nijmegen-Midden (midtown) includes the pleasant residential areas built in the 20th century to the west of St Annastraat: adjacent to the university campus is St Anna, further west is Hazenkamp (streets named after animals), and Nije Veld is to the north of Groenestraat. Goffert consists of the large Goffert Park and a few surrounding streets. Heyendaal is the university campus.
- Nijmegen-Zuid (south) is the southernmost area of Nijmegen, consisting of the 1950s and ’60s suburbs Brakkenstein, Hatertse Hei (both adjacent to the MPI), Grootstal, and Hatert.
- Nijmegen-Oud-West (old west), just west of the town centre across the railway line, is made up of the old neighbourhoods of Wolfskuil and Biezen, which consist of low-rise pre-war houses that have been renovated for rental as well as newer developments.
- Nijmegen-Nieuw-West (new west), at the north-west edge of town, contains the new suburbs of Hees, Heseveld, and Neerbosch-Oost that are bordered to the north-west by industrial and harbour areas.
- Nijmegen-Noord (north) is the area of Nijmegen north of the River Waal, consisting of Lent, Oosterhout, and Ressen. Future development is planned for this area.
- Dukenburg and Lindenholt are the large and fairly green areas of Nijmegen west of the Maas-Waal canal, consisting of a number of modern suburbs. These are cheaper areas of Nijmegen but are relatively far from the university and town centre.
- Beyond Nijmegen. The villages of Beek and Berg en Dal lie just outside Nijmegen to the east. Malden, Molenhoek, and Groesbeek are a little further away to the south and south-east. Wijchen and Beuningen are larger settlements a similar distance to the west.
- Further afield. Housing in Arnhem, to the north of Nijmegen, may be cheaper than in Nijmegen; there is a regular train service to Arnhem which takes around 20 minutes. The town of Oss is a similar distance away to the south-west and is also connected by rail. Just across the border in Germany, towns such as Kranenburg and Kleve offer good-value accommodation. Note, however, that you need a car to get to work and paperwork such as taxes and residence permits may be more difficult to arrange.
