If I travelled into the centre of Munich every day (I'm in the 7th ring out of 16), it would cost me 1400 euros a year (a full network ticket would be 2700 euros!). That seems rather similar to London.
- ido 8y agoI don’t know about Munich, maybe it’s the exception in the German-speaking countries. From 8 years of living in Vienna and 5 of living in Berlin transit costs were never significant to me & I never lived in the center of either city. The numbers quoted from the links above line up with my gut feeling when visiting London (my feeling was even more extreme actually, but a few years ago the GBP was worth a lot more € than today).
- heavenlyblue 8y agoNor Vienna, nor Berlin are considered to be the business centres of Europe.
- ido 8y agoI never said anything about whether or not this is justified only that I was surprised it was that expensive & that it’s more expensive than other places I’ve been to (including NYC, if you want to talk about global business/financial centers).
