Where is Schönbrunn Umgebung?

How safe is Schönbrunn Umgebung?

Safety in Schönbrunn Umgebung: Excellent (8.8/10), based on official police crime statistics. A non-binding orientation value for the area, not a statement about any single address.

Is Schönbrunn Umgebung dangerous?

Short answer: no — Vienna consistently ranks among the safest large cities in the world, and that holds across all 23 districts. Schönbrunn Umgebung sits at 8.8 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 Schönbrunn Umgebung?

Public transport in Schönbrunn Umgebung: Excellent (8.8/10) – based on proximity to metro, tram and bus (Wiener Linien).

Is Schönbrunn Umgebung noisy?

Quiet in Schönbrunn Umgebung: Good (6.7/10), based on traffic-noise exposure. It is not only Schönbrunner Schloßstraße you hear — traffic carries into the side streets, and finding a quiet side is a matter of luck here. Right there you raise your voice to talk, and a phone call on the pavement gets tiring (calculated above 70 dB by day). Traffic drops off at night, though it never fully disappears along the loud edge. The busiest named axes nearby, by official annual traffic volume: Grünbergstraße (~50,272/day), Schönbrunner Brücke (~40,209/day), Schönbrunner Schloßstraße (~33,127/day).

How hot does Schönbrunn Umgebung get in summer?

In summer Schönbrunn Umgebung is rather warm — about the Vienna average. Heat index 56 of 100 (Vienna average 57), modelled. Dense, enclosed building form stores the day's heat and releases it slowly at night; there is little green to cool it. 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 Schönbrunn Umgebung?

Green space in Schönbrunn Umgebung: Excellent (9.5/10). Parks and greenery shape everyday life here.

Who is Schönbrunn Umgebung a good fit for?

Most of all for people who value lots of greenery at the doorstep and short trips by public transport. Less ideal if quiet is at the very top of your list — that's the trade-off here.

Is Schönbrunn Umgebung expensive?

Guide prices for Schönbrunn Umgebung: rent around €15/m², buying around €6,000/m² (indexed orientation). Value for money in the Living Score: Good.
