A nonvolatile memory apparatus includes a plurality of cell arrays, each including a near area and a far area. A plurality of memory cells are included in the near area, and a plurality of memory cells are included in the far area. When a memory cell of the plurality of memory cells, included in a near area of at least one cell array, among the plurality of cell arrays, is selected, based on an address signal, the nonvolatile memory apparatus selects memory cells included in far areas of the remaining cell arrays based on the address signal. The nonvolatile memory apparatus performs a first read operation on the selected memory cell of the at least one cell array, and performs a second read operation on the selected memory cells of the remaining cell arrays.
