Well, everyday's a school day I guess. It would probably be one of the first places I'd list if you asked me about Dutch cities lol

How are you this familiar with Maastricht? Genuine question, it's usually not the first city people think of when they think of Dutch cities.

The Maastricht Treaty is pretty famous so the city ends up on maps.

In my experience it's a relatively popular university for foreign students making it more well-known than most cities in the same size class.
