Rent a home in Camminghaburen, Leeuwarden
The largest residential district of Leeuwarden, east of the city center, built in phases from the 1970s to the beginning of the twenty-first century.
Camminghaburen is the largest district of Leeuwarden, located east of the city center. The district was developed in several phases, from the 1970s to the 1990s and beyond. This gives it a more varied housing supply than a district built in a single construction period: older gallery flats next to more spacious single-family homes, terraced houses next to recently completed owner-occupied homes. The district has its own shopping center, schools, and sports facilities, making it largely self-sufficient.

Multiple construction phases, multiple faces
The eastern part of Camminghaburen is the oldest. The 1970s construction here consists of the typical combination of that period: gallery flats for the city outskirts and terraced houses on residential areas. The later extensions to the north and east are more spaciously designed, with wider streets and larger plots.
This layering in construction periods makes Camminghaburen accessible to different types of tenants. Those looking for an affordable apartment will find it in the older apartment buildings. Those looking for a more spacious home will look in the 1990s extensions.
Daily life
The Camminghaburen shopping center provides the district with supermarkets and daily shops. Those who want more choice can cycle to the city center in ten to fifteen minutes. The district has primary schools, sports complexes, and parks spread throughout the neighborhood. It is a district that functions independently without needing the center for every daily need.
What you rent
The unregulated rental market supply in Camminghaburen is larger than in the city center. The scale of the district and the higher proportion of rental properties ensure more turnover. Apartments in gallery flats, single-family homes on residential areas, and more spacious homes in the younger parts of the district are all represented.
For families who want to live in Leeuwarden without paying city center prices and need space, Camminghaburen is a logical choice. The center is close enough to cycle to regularly but far enough not to be bothered by it.
