Chevilly-Larue: what the neighbourhood is like
Chevilly-Larue is in the Val-de-Marne, between Villejuif and Rungis. Tramway T7 connects it to Villejuif-Louis Aragon, and from there to metro line 7 and the north-south axis into Paris, running every 5-8 minutes at peak times.
This is the only address in the network facing south, and that's its whole appeal: the Gustave Roussy cancer institute and the Villejuif teaching hospital cluster, UPEC in Créteil, and the Paris-Saclay campuses are all realistic destinations from here. For a health-sciences student headed south, the other eight residences — all north or west — simply don't make sense.
The Rungis wholesale market and the Belle Épine shopping centre are the area's commercial landmarks. For green space, Parc des Hautes-Bruyères and the L'Haÿ-les-Roses rose garden are close by. The neighbourhood is quiet and residential, with a less dense student scene than in Seine-Saint-Denis.

- ✓Two-room units available
Skip it if…
- ×If your campus is in the north — Paris 8, Sorbonne Paris Nord, Campus Condorcet — every other residence here beats this one

Lucas visited Campus Victoria in person and checked, firsthand:
- ✓how often the T7 tram actually runs at peak times and in the evening
- ✓the trip to Villejuif, UPEC and the Paris-Saclay sites
- ✓the shared facilities and the T2 units
This is the only residence in the network facing south. For a health-sciences student headed to Villejuif, nothing else here comes close; for a student from the north, it makes no sense at all.
Frequently asked questions
Is this the right residence for UPEC or Paris-Saclay?
It's the only one in the network genuinely positioned for the south of Île-de-France. UPEC in Créteil, the Gustave Roussy institute in Villejuif, and several Paris-Saclay sites are realistic from here, at roughly 20-25 minutes.
What's the real cost after housing benefit?
Roughly €250-280/month in APL for a student with no income, bringing the monthly cost to about €408-438. This is an estimate — only the CAF confirms your actual entitlement.
Is tramway T7 a reliable daily option?
It links Villejuif-Louis Aragon to Athis-Mons, running every 5-8 minutes at peak times, and connects at Villejuif to metro line 7, giving access to the whole north-south Paris axis. Almost every trip into central Paris requires that one change, though.
Why does a C-rated residence have a better emissions score than some A-rated ones?
DPE and GES measure different things. DPE rates energy consumption (109 kWh/m²/year here), GES rates greenhouse-gas emissions (10 kg CO₂/m²/year). Lower-carbon heating can produce a strong GES score even with average consumption. On this measure, Campus Victoria ties with Campus Lena, the network's top performer.
Are two-room units available?
Yes, studio and T2 are both offered. The T2 rate is above the €688 studio price — ask the residence for current availability, since larger units book up first.
What's included in the rent?
Water, electricity, heating, fibre, upkeep of shared areas and waste collection tax. Renter's insurance (about €6/month, mandatory) and a one-month deposit excluding charges are separate.
