Padua hosts over 60,000 students within a population of little more than 210,000 inhabitants: these are the numbers depicting one of the oldest university towns, where student and city life coexist in close proximity on a daily basis.

Padua is also well-endowed with parks, green spaces and bicycle lanes (currently 170 km). And if the need arises, there is also a car-sharing scheme available, with 28 docking stations.

Similarly, people keen on sports are well catered for, with the University Sports Centre (CUS) offering a wide range of activities, individual and team alike.
