I live in the Netherlands and got lucky with my housing situation, but given the prices here and the fact that I work mostly remove, I would have seriously considered moving to East Germany. I saw apartments for sale for 25k there. What I read everywhere is that there aren't many jobs available locally and the area is relatively sparsely populated, never really recovering from the damage done during the war and the years under Soviet rule.
