The rental market in Nijmegen
Nijmegen calls itself the oldest city in the Netherlands, and its Roman-era street pattern is still visible in the narrow lanes of the Benedenstad. Behind that historic core sits a rental market shaped by Radboud University and the Radboudumc hospital complex, both major draws for students and healthcare staff who need housing close to Heyendaal.
Supply in Nijmegen is limited relative to demand, and a well-priced listing near the centre or the university can be gone within hours. This page shows what Addressly is monitoring in Nijmegen today.
Be among the first to respond, every time. Most Addressly users receive their first viewing invitation on the day they sign up, often within hours, because Addressly sends the request the moment a match appears instead of whenever you next check. This still depends on your preferences, budget and the current state of the Nijmegen market.

Decide upfront how far you're willing to be from Heyendaal if you're affiliated with the university or hospital, and how far from the centre if you're not; those are two different searches in Nijmegen and mixing them wastes time on listings that don't actually fit. Set a hard maximum on rent including service charges before you look, since older Benedenstad properties can carry higher shared costs than their base rent suggests.
Addressly monitors listings matching your preferences and can send a viewing request from your own inbox as soon as a match appears, before you've had time to check the listing yourself.
