Hamburg/Berlin When asked which of the German-speaking cities with more than a million inhabitants they found “most pleasant”, the majority voted for Hamburg (25 percent). Munich (19 percent), Vienna (15 percent), Berlin (12 percent) and Cologne (11 percent) follow. The rest didn’t want to choose any of the cities.

Men and women are pretty unanimous in terms of ratings on the subject. Young people (18 to 24 years old) differ the most in terms of age groups: among them, Munich is ahead of Hamburg, followed by Cologne, Berlin and Vienna.
