About Student Housing in Champaign
Champaign, Illinois sits right next to Urbana, and together the twin cities wrap around the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and its tens of thousands of students. The heart of student life is Campustown, the dense stretch along Green Street packed with student housing and everything within walking distance, just south of the Main Quad. Campus anchors the area with the open lawns of the Quad and green space at Washington Park, while Illini athletics keep the gamedays loud. Students spread across both cities, from Campustown and Downtown Champaign to the quieter tree-lined streets of West Urbana that run straight into campus. The two downtowns give you nightlife, arts, and a real city feel without the big-city grind.
