Is living and working in Munich a good idea?

 

Munich, the Bavarian capital, is the third largest city by population in Germany. Munich is the cultural capital of the nation. Results from polls taken show that the city is most loved by Germans and it is no surprise: the urban area reaches right up to the foot of the Alps, its ancient Baroque architecture and art, and yes, the beer.

 

The city ranks as the most expensive in Germany, ahead of even Berlin. Yet, it is one of the safest cities in the whole of Germany as long as you play you part and keep a low profile. The local language spoken in munich is Austro-Bavarian.

 

The city of munich is divided into six (6) districts:

 

The City Centre: is generally regarded as the area enclosed within the walls of the old city. This district is made up mainly of Stachus, down to the Marienplatz Square and its adjoining areas which includes Isartor and Karlsplatz.

 

University Area: this district refers to the areas generally covered by Schwabing and the nearby Marxvorstadt. This area is trendy and very cosmopolitan.

Olympic Arena: this district played host to the 1972 Munich Olympics. It is the site of the Olympic Stadium.

 

Haidhausen: this district is perhaps the liveliest of the six districts as it comes alive with discos, clubs, and bars. Most of the clubs and discos are concentrated around the Eastern Station, especially at Kultfabrik.

 

Thalkirchen: this district is popular for its relaxation spots, most especially by the banks of the Isar and the summer bonfires.

 

Neuhausen and Nymphenburg: home to the Schloss Nymphenburg palace and Hirschgarten, the largest beer garden in the world, this district would please anyone on a leisure trip.
