Where is Kledering?
Kledering is in Vienna's 11th district (Simmering), postal code 1110.
How safe is Kledering?
Safety in Kledering: Excellent (8.5/10), based on official police crime statistics. A non-binding orientation value for the area, not a statement about any single address.
Is Kledering dangerous?
Short answer: no — Vienna consistently ranks among the safest large cities in the world, and that holds across all 23 districts. Kledering sits at 8.5 out of 10 on the safety dimension (Excellent). One thing worth knowing when reading such figures: crime statistics count offences where they HAPPEN, not where those affected live. Districts with major stations, nightlife and many visitors therefore collect more reports without a residential street a few corners away being any different. Within a district, the gap between a busy hub and a quiet side street is usually larger than the gap between two districts.
How good is public transport in Kledering?
Public transport in Kledering: Good (7.2/10) – based on proximity to metro, tram and bus (Wiener Linien).
Is Kledering noisy?
Quiet in Kledering: Excellent (8.1/10), based on traffic-noise exposure. It only gets loud at the edges; away from the through road you notice little of it. Traffic drops off at night, though it never fully disappears along the loud edge. Then the Ostbahn line: not a constant hum but waves — you hear it come and go.
How hot does Kledering get in summer?
In summer Kledering is moderate — cooler than the Vienna average. Heat index 50 of 100 (Vienna average 57), modelled. Green cover, trees and open, low building form let the night cool down. This is a MODELLED index (from building form, density, green space, street trees, water and elevation, checked against the City of Vienna's climate analysis map), not a measured temperature and not a count of hot days. Within one area it varies a lot: a green courtyard and a treeless street a few metres apart are not the same place.
How green is Kledering?
Green space in Kledering: Excellent (8.5/10). Parks and greenery shape everyday life here.
