Station neighbourhood of Le Vert de Maisons

Observatory of the Grand Paris Express station neighbourhoods

The Le Vert de Maisons station district has a population of 21,000 and provides 11,400 salaried jobs. It is notable for its student population from the University of Paris-Est Créteil. The opening of the Grand Paris Express Line 15 South in early 2027, connecting with the RER D, will improve access to this rapidly changing neighbourhood, which is seeing a sharp rise in housing supply.

It is characterised by three major urban barriers that fragment the area: the A86 motorway, the River Seine and the RER D railway lines, which can only be crossed via a pedestrian underpass at the station. The opening of Line 15 South will help to improve access to the area. Half of the neighbourhood’s housing stock consists of social housing. Certain areas are currently characterised by a high level of social segregation, including the two priority neighbourhoods under the City Policy – Chantereine and Grand Ensemble – where the provision of local amenities is nevertheless particularly dense. The neighbourhood’s residents are predominantly from working-class backgrounds, but the proportion of white-collar workers is increasing and the area’s appeal as a place to live is growing as a result of the ongoing urban regeneration. 1,840 additional homes have been recorded since 2010, mainly in the Chantereine ZAC and the Néo-C development, where numerous retail outlets have been completed. This momentum has resulted in a sharp 10 per cent rise in the population between 2010 and 2021, a trend set to continue, particularly with the completion of the 237 homes still to be built across the three ongoing development projects.
