I've lived in Munich for six months during my Erasmus internship. It is a great place to live generally offering high quality of life, and it would hands down be the best city to live in Germany if: -It wasn't expensive af, especially rent prices -It wasn't almost impossible to find a place to rent (like literally the only way to find is through acquaintances) -Bavaria was less bureaucratic and more tech-progressive -It had more... young people; much of the youth there is because of the two of the best unis in Germany (LMU & TUM) that receive many EU & International students, otherwise it would have been a city of old people. Everything else is pretty much great in Munich, which is quite liberal in an otherwise conservative state.

Old Bricks like chuches museums and other important buildings: (innere) Altstadt. Bars & Clubs: (innere) Neustadt. Shopping: Prager Straße + Altmark-Galerie. Hookers: Pieschen. The airport is a joke. Also: Pegida sucks.

Rent is cheap by German standards. Clean and tidy city good public transport. Like the rest of East Germany, it’s full of old people. If you’re under 40, don’t come here. Dresden is a mausoleum.
