the best place to live in berlin is where you can get an apartment..

Nobody wants to live outside of the ring. Me, in Lichtenberg: triggered

Berlin has sooo much more to offer than hipster/party/Bavarian and young people oriented stuff. As someone who grew up here, lived in other countries and came back because home is home, I really miss the ordinary Berlin people living here for good. Don’t get me wrong: I love diversity, but somehow I’ve got the impression for the last 2-3 years, it is getting more and more lost among all the hipsters trying so hard to look different but in the end all look the same. And there are definitely great living and leisure areas outside the Ring, but why bother to explore those when many young people mostly come here to have maximum fun for a short period of time. As great and energetic this might be for a city on the one hand, it has its side effects on the other hand for the permanent residents... like rising housing prices, dirty streets etc. I wish Berlin would finally be seen for more than just a great party location(s).

As a Berliner I must say "things do change over time".. before Unification the hippest area in West-Berlin was around Savigny Platz and Kantstraße, cause of the nearby University and High School of fine Arts. There was Hansa Studios right near the wall (Köthener Str.38), the only 16 track Studio in Europe, that is one reason why David Bowie lived here, but Iggy Pop, U2, Brian Eno, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Claw Boys Claw, Depeche Mode, Marillion, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Killing Joke, Boney M., Manic Street Preachers, R.E.M., Snow Patrol, Kent, Living Things, Go Go Berlin, last not least the Rolling Stones recorded here, the hippest Clubs were "The Dschungel" and "The Metropol" as well as at least a dozen others with more Bar-Style Character - and yes things change and keep changing - cheers! P.S: Maybe a Vid about Berlins amazing parks and green areas would attract attention.. Berlin is such a beautiful city, rich in culture and loads of parks and gardens, as well as forests, lakes, rivers!

i was born in the city centre but grew up outside of the "ring" and for living those are actually the best area imo, no matter who you are or who you're living with. public transport is just so ubiquitous and fully developed that it's just take you 15-30min to places where "something's going on", while still enjoying safety and quietness of the residential and affordable areas

His hate for Matrix is so Pure. I will definitely visit Matrix once to checkout what makes him hate that club so much.

Would love to see a video on districts outside the ring (Zehlendorf, Wannsee).

Districts outside of the ring are most of the time better connected to key spots in the city (Zoologischer Garten, Friedrichstraße, Alexanderplatz, you name it) than some districts inside of the ring (e.g. Moabit). So it's actually an urban legend that living inside of the ring is better for one's mobility.

My second visit to Berlin I lived a few minutes from Frankfurter Tor and loved that area. I think I'm more into east berlin than west.

Nice work nailing the different districts in Berlin and pretty accurate. With the diversity of the Kiez in Berlin it's like having the option to do daytrips to a new vibe or feel outside of the Kiez you live in. There truly are countless of moods to explore here.

More videos on junky side of Berlin and the calm side of berlin ( outside of the ring )

After waiting for months you finally uploaded this video and it is really good. hell yes, we want a video about the places outside the rings. love your content!!!!!!

Thanks! This is the best overview of Berlin's neighbourhoods I've found so far. I'll be there this fall for a week & now I have a better sense of where to stay. Good stuff.

This the most informative video I watched so far about Berlin. Thank you, man! Really helpful for someone new in Berlin

Thanks for this! As someone who's considering Berlin for a post-pandemic move, your guide has cleared up a lot of confusion and overwhelm

It's so sad that many of these clubs and bars will never re-open after corona.

Great work once again ! :D It would be great to hear also about some areas outside Berlin, the same criteria as the ones you had in this video. + easy to reach city center .

this video is so great, thank you for your effort to shoot and edit, these informations are so valuable. May the blessing of Techno Gods be upon you!

Finde deine Videos absolute klasse! :) Sehr guter Humor - weiter so! Ein kleiner Widerspruch: Es gibt auch "jenseits des Rings" schöne Stadtteile, die man nicht wirklich als suburban bezeichnen kann: Steglitz z.B. hat sehr urbane Stellen. Selbst Spandau und Köpenick haben ein kleines Stadtzentrum und beherbergen viele Restauraunts, Bars, Cafés. Es gibt Kinos und Theater. Suburban ist - vor allem für das englischsprachige Publikum (an das du dich ja wahrscheinlich richtest), normalerweise Häuschen an Häuschen. Das geht in Berlin in vielen Teilen erst weeeeeeeeit nach dem Ring damit los. Sub-urban im amerikanischen Sinne ist doch in Berlin schon praktisch Königs-Wusterhausen ;-)

Thank you for the video. I knew Berlin was huge but you explain it very effectively how really big it is. My wife and I are considering moving there so it is great to know more about the districts. Where I am currently located we have 4 parts of the city that is each totally different. Berlin makes it seem like a town

I lived in Mitte for some time and loved it! Thanks for the great video!

So useful as always. You covered the most important points for me to figure out where to live. Thank you.

i visited berlin 2 times and wanted to learn more about the city and german culture in general.I like very much your channel so keep up the good work!, greetings from Greece-Athens :)

This is one of the best descriptive video about the neighborhoods in Berlin. Thanks for creating such an amazing content mate. ✌️

Grandioses Video! Schön verpackt und super interessant. Gerne mehr solchen Content!

Such a great channel and so little views :( You deserve much more. Thanks for the video!

What I find fascinating is how everyone tells you to basically settle wherever you manage to find a flat, and yet once you do so - you're immediately defined by the kiez you live in by the people from other parts of town )))

I love Neukoln, my best friend lives there, I thought it was a bit confusing the first time I was in Berlin and stayed in Berlin but this year I was there and it’s easy to navigate and it’s quite charming, too.

This is SO HELPFUL, thank you

Excellent analysis and very Articulit presentation. Good job , thorough and well presented.

I screamed when you said "Silicon Alley" and "Charlottengrad"

I am the coolest person in Berlin, I live in Steglitz and I work in Zehlendorf.

Great video! So, I just realised during my brief visit as a first time tourist to Berlin I was mostly just hanging around in Mitte! I would love to explore more districts in Berlin next time when I go there. Love the bears in Berlin and love being a tourist! =D

Well done video, I grew up in Neukoelln/Sonnenallee. I look forward to travel back to Berlin and check out all the places.

Oh God dude love your videos I'm super new in berlin but make me feel like home

Well described! I'd mention he sub-district Weissensee, north of Prenzlauer Berg. Since P'Berg became nearly unaffordable for families, Weissensee is gaining popularity. There are many nie cafes and restaurants, sport clubs, two lakes you can swim (Weißensee and Orankesee) and a very good access via public transportation. The second very popular but often unmentioned sub-district is in my opinion Rummelsburg.

Thank you so much! Amazing Video 💜💜💜

Very good job! You have taught me so much about Berlin. Danke.😊

Cool video! Please make another one about other districts outside the ring.

Man, congratulations for putting the effort into this video. It has wonderful editing and storytelling. I visited Berlin with my girlfriend -- she is from Frankfurt -- back in February right before the lockdowns started and fell in love with the city and its vibe. It would be amazing to live there sometime in the future. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Mexico.

I live in Charlottenburg...and I love it ...I mostly move around here, Mitte and Prenzlauer Berg ...Have to go more often to other parts as well ... Thanks for this video!

Incredibly helpful. Thank you!

I lived in Berlin for 6 months attending a language school and had the privilege to live on the Adalbertstraße, Kreuzberg. Sad that I eventually moved to Köln to further my studies. Köln is a great city but nothing like Berlin at all. I’ll definitely go back to Berlin again!

Interessantes Video! ich bin belgier und vor anderthalb Jahren nach Deutschland umgezogen aber war noch nie in Berlin, Zeit für ein Besuch!

Wie immer - ein schönes Video! Danke! Sehr nutzlich!

I do really love the way you tell us my beloved Berlin. One day I’ll leave Italy to come back there to live permanently. In the meanwhile, I’ll be back once in a while and I’m enjoying your stunning videos!

I've lived here for 8 years and this overview is absolutely spot-on! Great video.

Best 15 minutes I‘ve spent in a long while

I'm living in Prenzlauer Berg at the moment and my family originally comes from Schwaben! haha I never realized that it may be my heritage that made me like the district so much. Cool video!

I love Berlin! This was such a helpful video!

He says it will take you so much(45 minutes) lol. When I visited Berlin I was fascinated by how transportation is so fast because in Turkey 45 min transportation time is the usual. Not too much, normal.

"The only reason because you live outside the Ringbahn is because you're low on cash" laughs in dahlem

Love the content! A video on what to do in Berlin while the clubs are closed would be great

Thanks a bunch for the video. It’d be interesting to know about districts outside the ring too :)

As a big city, there is a district for every lifestyle. There are districts like Neuköln that are incredibly densely packed and urban, but there are also districts - or at least sub-districts like Buch and Buchholz - that remain open farmland. The diversity is staggering and people who can’t find a place where they feel at home in Berlin haven’t really looked.

I've been to Berlin Almost every year since 2011, and yet I feel I still haven't seen all of Berlin. Please do a video of the outter ring areas of Berlin. Danke :)

Awesome channel with killer content! Thanks for putting up fun and informative videos for us. Looking forward to more of it.

So funny, so descriptive and accurate. Thanks a lot.

Sehr detailliert, dein Kanal ist sehr interessant, danke feurs Hochladen. Ich habe abboniert.

Yes, outside the ring, too, please. Keeping options open and rental price problems as a student.

Your channel is a discovery of the year for me, thank you

Hi! Awesome video, thank you a lot. As I see there are a few districts that you haven't covered that still placed inside the ring. What about wilmersdorf? Templehof-choneberg? Wedding? Im looking forward to watching new videos like that about Berlin districts!

Great video. Makes me want to runaway to Berlin. 🏃

Im a Moabiter. I was really excited to watch this video to see what you will say about Moabit. Nothing??? Cmon ofc its not Kreuzberg but still worth mentioning?? 😭😂

I love your sense of humor...i laughed so hard at the 4 guys at the beginning

Hey thanks for making it easier to mentally locate all these places i heard before.

Would love to know if this information still stands true today? Is everything exactly the same? Also would be great to get more information on rough cost estimates when living in these different parts you mentioned. Thank you again for your content, your videos are great! ❤

I would like to know a bit more about outside of the ring. Lifestyle of the suburbs. Me falling in love with Berlin 😁

Very helpful and informative. Thanks :-)

Thank you. helped a lot for my researches. Planning to move there too.

Ausgezeichnetes Video. Danke.

My 6-year old son told me Berlin used to be two cities, I told him there are way more now!

would really like to know more in depth about the aforementioned districts in Berlin and also what’s life like outside the ring. 😃☺️ Good and informative video 👍🏻 Danke sehr!

Thanks for making this video, it's quite helpful as I'm looking into moving to Berlin and didn't know half the things you've shared here. PS: I also enjoy your videos, I just discovered your channel and I'm already having a blast lol

"U gotta be careful because u will spend most of your time in your district since some of them could be 45 mins away!" Me, an Argentinian who took 45 mins to go to school every day even tough I live near by the capital... hahah Ps: I love Berlin I'll try to go to study a semester there❤

I am from Berlin and i like to compare it with Tokyo, because it is so diverse. It feels like a different City if you go from Alt Tegel to Kreuzberg... I can also really recommend the "Wedding". It is cheap, you have really good Public Transport, many Bars, Restaurants, Shops, less Hipsters and Tourists and they started to build more Parks and Playgrounds! ;)

Thanks for the video mate! love from spain!

thanks for the in depth analysis of the city 👍🏻

Shame that you haven't mentioned Moabit and Wedding. Best places in Berlin imo.

Most European cities seem to have ring around the inner city but the ring in London is the M25 which goes around the outside of the suburbs. There is a north circular route and south circular route further in which is featured on the Unfinished London playlist on the Jay Foreman channel. Cities on the coast have a dual carriageway road instead that bisects the north part of the city from the south part of the city if on the south coast. If on the west or east coast the road would separate the east side of the city from the west side.

your amazing ! best videos on berlin - im on my way there from New York, I feel less anxious now that I have reviewed your videos !

Very cool tour. A tremendous amount of work went into this video.

As an artist, Berlin is always on my top list of place I wanna visit. I just wanna feel the punk atmosphere there and night life.

I live in P. Berg really quiet and lot of new families

Thanks for the video, I live in Berlin Reinickendorf since 3yrs now but I have never been in Neuköln. But now I have to visit there😀

Just found your videos. Love your deadpan humor.

Lived in Neu Köln and later in Charlottenburg. Loved the quite and clean place with a Balkony over the river spree. On weekend I took the subway to go to the east for clubbing and under the week I lived outside the dirty and fucked up part of the city 😅 Now I live in Switzerland in a small village and for sure the time in Berlin was nice, but in the other hand if you enter your thirties it’s time to leave 😂😂

Prenzlauer Berg looks nice. I was in Berlin in 2018, for only a couple of days, with work..stayed at OstBahnhof..the area around the hotel looked pretty creepy. It is quite strange to see that there is a considerable difference between areas.

What a great video! So helpful so much detail!!! Thanks a lot

Awesome compilation!

Hab da für 2 Jahre studiert. Die beste Stadt!!

What's your opinion about Lichtenberg? :D A lot of students life there too

This was very good. You have a natural talent for this sort of travel guide stuff. Did enjoy the description of the ‘shitty parts’😀😀

Thanks for the info!!

I've watched this video 5 times already trying to figure it out where to live! Amazing, thank you :D

Your videos are addictive, can't wait to move to Berlin.

Das war krass! Sehr gut gemacht! Einfach super video!

Very interesting and such a beautiful city. Thank you for the city tour. I liked it.
