Living in Campagne, Maastricht
Campagne is a quiet, green suburban neighbourhood on the southwestern side of Maastricht, nestled between the hilly Jekerdal landscape and the built-up area of the city. The neighbourhood has a distinct villa character: spacious detached homes and semi-detached houses on wide plots, surrounded by mature trees and well-kept gardens. The buildings mostly date from the 1960s and 1970s, but there are also newer properties from the 1990s and early 2000s. Rental homes here are not porch flats or terraced houses, but generally larger homes rented out by private owners. This also explains the relatively high free-sector rental prices.
The population of Campagne is notably ageing: of the 1,260 residents, the largest group is those aged 65 and over (565 people). The proportion of families with children under 15 is limited (105 children). The average household income of €47,300 and the high proportion of highly educated residents (58%) give the neighbourhood a quiet, established character. If you are looking for a lively, young neighbourhood, you would be better off looking at Centrum Maastricht or the neighbourhood Jekerdal, which has more variety in residents.
Facilities in Campagne
Campagne itself is modestly equipped, which suits its quiet residential character. For daily shopping, you drive or cycle towards Hazendans or the shopping centre on Ambyerstraat-Noord. There is no supermarket within walking distance directly in the neighbourhood itself. Primary schools in the immediate vicinity can be found in adjacent neighbourhoods; for secondary education and facilities, you rely on other parts of Maastricht. The proximity of the green hills around Sint Pieter does offer excellent walking and cycling opportunities. Sports clubs and recreational facilities are accessible via the adjacent neighbourhoods Sint Pieter and Wolder. For those who value greenery and peace over a full range of facilities within walking distance, this is not a drawback.
Accessibility
By car, Campagne is easily accessible via the A2 and A79 motorways, which connect Maastricht with Eindhoven, Liège and Aachen. The city centre is about five to ten minutes' drive away. Public transport is more limited: there are buses to the centre and Maastricht station, but the frequency is lower than in neighbourhoods closer to the centre. Cyclists can reach the centre in about twenty minutes via quiet roads and the Jekerdal cycle path. Parking is generally not a problem in Campagne; most homes have their own driveway or garage and there is no paid parking regime.
Residents particularly appreciate the neighbourhood for its peace and space. On the neighbourhood page of Campagne, a resident writes: "It's wonderfully quiet here, you hear the birds and the neighbours are friendly and discreet. But for a loaf of bread you do have to take the car." That sums up the character well: Campagne offers quality of living, but requires a certain self-sufficiency in terms of mobility. Compared to Biesland, which has a similar green character but slightly more facilities, Campagne is even more exclusive and quieter.
Is renting in Campagne right for you?
Campagne mainly attracts tenants who consciously choose peace, space and a green living environment, and are willing to pay a higher rent for it. Given the ageing population and the high proportion of married households (42%), the neighbourhood is best suited to two-person households, expats with a higher budget, or seniors who want to rent without the responsibility of owning a home. Starters and students will find little affordable supply here; for them, Buitenwijk West or the city centre are more realistic options. Since there are no housing association homes in Campagne, registering with a housing association is pointless for this neighbourhood. The free-sector supply is limited (only eight homes were rented out in the past twelve months), so respond quickly if a property becomes available. If you are considering buying, you can also view the supply of homes for sale in Campagne.
What residents say about Campagne

They are less enthusiastic about the lack of facilities within walking distance and the limited bus connections. One resident writes: "Campagne is one of the quietest corners of Maastricht. Ideal if you want to unwind after work, but you have to be able to cope with needing the car for everything." View all reviews and the full neighbourhood scores on the overview page of Campagne.
