Vienna is divided into a total of 23 districts that extend from the center to the outer areas. Each district has a clear number assigned, with the first district (Innere Stadt) closest to the center. The outer districts, such as Floridsdorf (21st), Donaustadt (22nd) and Liesing (23rd), form Vienna’s extensive outskirts.

Choosing the right district in Vienna is crucial when searching for an apartment – we show you three popular areas:

• The 4th district, Wieden, is considered particularly quiet and charming. If you appreciate period apartment charm, a central location and a relaxed residential environment, this is the right place for you.
• The 15th district, Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus, is increasingly becoming a tip for budget-conscious living. With its proximity to Westbahnhof, multicultural flair and comparatively low rents, it attracts mainly young people and newcomers.
• The Leopoldstadt in the 2nd district scores with its proximity to the Danube, numerous leisure opportunities and good connections to the city center. It is ideal for those who want to live close to nature while staying central.

More than half of Vienna’s area consists of green spaces. Cultural institutions, gastronomy, markets and water access points like the Alte Donau make Vienna unique.

Whether you’re looking for a quiet rental apartment with a terrace or a lovely property in Döbling – the city fulfills many wishes. Thanks to intelligent filters on Lystio you’ll quickly find the right apartment tailored to your needs!
