The figures are district medians (2024, indexed to Q1 2026 using the Statistics Austria house-price index, +5.5%) as an honest orientation — not asking or real-time prices. Vienna has no free, legal live price feed; the medians serve as guide values, with source and year stated openly. Within a district prices vary widely by location, condition and build year. The Living Score itself is unaffected.
One big reason Vienna stays comparatively affordable is the Gemeindebau — around a quarter of all flats belong to the city, which holds rents down across the whole town.
