Where should I setup a bank account in Nijmegen?

Answer this Question

We asked expats in Nijmegen what banks they use and there advice about banking. They advised...

"Nijmegen is a city in the Netherlands known for its rich history, vibrant culture, and high quality of life, making it an attractive destination for expats looking to retire. Before retiring in Nijmegen, it's important to understand the cost of living, which is generally higher than in many other countries, but comparable to other Dutch cities. Healthcare in the Netherlands is of a high standard, but it's mandatory to have health insurance, so expats should factor this into their budget. The official language is Dutch, and while many locals speak English, learning some Dutch can help with integration and daily life. Nijmegen has a temperate maritime climate, with mild summers and cool winters, so expats from warmer climates may need to adjust. The city is known for its cycling culture, and it's often faster and more convenient to travel by bike than by car. Nijmegen has a range of housing options, from modern apartments to traditional Dutch houses, but the housing market can be competitive, so it's advisable to start looking well in advance. The Netherlands has a progressive tax system, so it's important for expats to understand their tax obligations. Nijmegen is a safe city with a low crime rate, but like anywhere, it's important to take basic safety precautions. The city has a vibrant cultural scene, with numerous festivals, museums, and events throughout the year, offering plenty of opportunities for socializing and entertainment. Finally, it's important to understand the Dutch immigration process, which may require a visa or residence permit, depending on your nationality," explained one expat living in Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
