Living in Eichenau: green living with fast connections to Munich
Small town west of Munich
Eichenau is located in the east of the Fürstenfeldbruck district and is clearly part of the western Munich commuter area. Official municipal websites emphasize the excellent connections via the S4, bus lines and the A8, A99 and A96; at the same time, the municipality explicitly describes Eichenau as a location with high residential and leisure value.
This is a key advantage for prospective residents: the town is close enough to Munich, but is much quieter and smaller than many urban locations.

There is therefore plenty of choice for a visit to a café, a simple dinner or a meal in the local area. If you are looking for more choice, head for Puchheim, Fürstenfeldbruck, Germering or Munich.
