Living in Leopoldstadt
Leopoldstadt lies between the Danube Canal and the Danube and has two faces. In the Karmeliterviertel, around the Augarten and in the Volkertviertel there are Gründerzeit buildings with markets, cafés and small shops. In the Nordbahnviertel, on the former Nordbahnhof site and around the WU campus and the trade fair, thousands of new-build flats have appeared in recent years, often with balcony, lift and underground parking.
Add the Prater, the Grüner Prater and the Augarten, among the largest green spaces near the centre, and the Donauinsel a short bike ride away. The U1 stops at Nestroyplatz and Praterstern, the U2 runs via Taborstraße and Messe to the Stadion. Because old and new buildings cost so differently, rents vary a lot within the district: a listing in the Nordbahnviertel is hard to compare with a period flat in the Volkertviertel.
Good to know: new builds in the Nordbahnviertel often have higher operating costs than older buildings, but heating is usually cheaper thanks to better insulation. The energy certificate class in the listing helps with the comparison.
