These areas located south of the centre of Maastricht have very good connections with the City Centre Campus, so you can also consider them to live near it. For sure you will find accommodations here that are a little more affordable than in the city centre.
These three neighbourhoods are located on the other side of the Meuse river with respect to the centre of Maastricht.

You will also be able to reach the city centre in no time, so you will not have any problems enjoying the leisure and nightlife.
Maastricht University has residences for students and a service that is responsible for housing young people. However, with more than 20,000 students every year, it becomes an impossible task to accommodate all of them in their residences. They have a long waiting list for the set number of places that they can offer. For this reason, it is usually easier to rent a room in a private shared apartment.
