Living in Immerloo II

At 5,443 residents per km² the buurt is busy without being packed.
Arnhem combines affordable urban neighborhoods with direct access to the Veluwe and the German border. The fashion and energy sectors anchor local employment, and the city's hilly parks give some buurten views most Dutch cities simply don't have.

Average WOZ value per year (CBS). The reference date lags the current market by ±1 year.

Only about 1 in 25 homes here is owner-occupied (96% is social housing) — supply on Funda is structurally thin, which concentrates bidding on the few listings that appear. If you find a home here you like, being prepared (financing check done, valuation lined up) is worth more than in neighborhoods where something new lists every week.

Daily errands, coffee and dinner
Day to day: the nearest large supermarket is about 10 minutes' walk; dining out means a short trip: only 2 cafés or restaurants sit within a kilometer.
The practical checklist most buyers forget to make: pharmacy 20 min walk · GP 20 min · hospital 3.7 km · library 2.3 km · 1 cinema within 5 km. None of these will decide a purchase on their own, but a GP taking new patients nearby is the kind of thing you only miss after moving.
Families and schools
For families: the nearest primary school is 4 minutes on foot; daycare is well covered (3 locations nearby) — though Dutch waiting lists mean you register the week you know you're expecting, not the week you need it; secondary school is a 7-minute bike ride, which Dutch teenagers do in all weather.
Getting around
Getting around: the nearest train station is 4.6 km out, so day-to-day life here leans on the car or bus; a highway on-ramp 1.1 km away makes car trips easy — check whether through-traffic noise reaches the street you're considering; and at 0.6 cars per household, most residents simply don't own one — if you do, factor in permit costs and waiting lists before you buy.
Energy and running costs
99% of homes were built before 2000. Two identical-looking houses on the same street can differ by hundreds of euros a month once heating is counted — the energy label tells you which one you're looking at, and lenders increasingly price it into your mortgage too.
Before you bid in Immerloo II
Before you bid in Immerloo II: listings are scarce here, which pushes bidding above asking more often — decide your maximum before the viewing, not during it. Also, the price gap with the rest of Arnhem is real, but so is the reason for it — walk the neighborhood at different times of day before committing. Beyond that, family neighborhoods like this one turn over slowly; when a good house appears it often goes to the first serious, well-prepared bidder.
None of these averages can tell you whether the specific house you found is fairly priced — that depends on its size, energy label, state of maintenance and the recent sales around it. That is exactly what a free HomeReview report checks, in about 10 seconds, for any Dutch address.
