Living in Ottakring
Ottakring runs from the Gürtel up to the Wilhelminenberg and changes character completely on the way. Down below it is dense and lively, centred on the Brunnenmarkt and Yppenplatz, with Gründerzeit buildings and many small flats. Up on the slope there are villas, estates and council housing with views over the city, close to the Vienna Woods.
The U3 ends at Ottakring, and the U6 stops on the Gürtel at Thaliastraße and Josefstädter Straße, plus the S45 and trams 44 and 46. The Ottakring brewery is both a landmark and an event venue. Rents differ strongly between the Gürtel and the Wilhelminenberg: cheap period flats below, larger flats with green above. Near the Brunnenmarkt, view a flat at different times of day, because the market starts early.
Good to know: Ottakring is split in two even though it all has the postcode 1160. For a comparison, check the location on the map: close to the Gürtel or up the slope towards the woods.
