The largest city of the Twente region in the eastern Netherlands near Germany, home to the University of Twente and its large green campus.
Student housing
The University of Twente puts rent at about EUR 561 and total living costs at about EUR 1,311 a month excluding tuition; the median room in Enschede rents for about EUR 388 (Kamernet, Q2 2026).
Transport for students
