Living in Neuried: green living with a short connection to Munich
Well connected on the outskirts of the city
Neuried is located in the Munich district and borders Planegg to the west, the Munich borough of Hadern to the north, the borough of Thalkirchen-Obersendling-Forstenried-Fürstenried-Solln to the east, and the Kasten Forest area to the south. The municipality reports a population of 9,062 for 2025, an elevation of 559 meters above sea level, and an area of 9.63 km². For prospective residents, this is an attractive combination: you live right on the outskirts of Munich, yet enjoy close proximity to open spaces and a significantly quieter neighborhood atmosphere.
Neighboring Areas and Context
Hadern, Fürstenried, Planegg, Lochham, and Gauting are particularly relevant for orientation. It is precisely this neighborhood that makes Neuried ideal for everyday life: Munich is right next door, while the routes into the Würm Valley and toward the southwestern suburbs are also quickly accessible. When comparing towns in the southwestern Munich area, you can consider Planegg, Gräfelfing, Forstenried, and Großhadern in addition to Neuried .

Neuried is a place that combines rural living with proximity to Munich. This basic direction is correct, but today the residential area is much more differentiated than the current brief description suggests: Neuried has developed into an independent residential community with a functioning everyday life, established infrastructure and stable family logic. At the same time, according to municipal documents, the town has never lost its village character.
Neuried is particularly plausible for families. Official documents list four children's houses, a kindergarten, an elementary school with all-day classes, lunchtime supervision and after-school care. On its education page, the municipality also lists the Neuried elementary school, after-school care, MITTI lunchtime care, the Neuried music school and secondary schools in the nearby area such as Fürstenried-West grammar school, Joseph-von-Fraunhofer school and Gauting state secondary school. From a residential perspective, this means that Neuried is not a great educational location, but a place with a very solid family and school structure.
Neuried is particularly interesting for:
- Families who want to live in a quiet, green area with good care
- Professionals who want to live close to Munich
- Couples looking for a more relaxed alternative to densely built-up city locations
- Prospective buyers who prefer a stable location in the south-west of Munich
- Temporary tenants looking for a quiet but easily accessible location

Shopping
For Neuried, it is not large-scale shopping that is decisive, but a functioning town center with local supply. Neuried's weekly market on the market square fits in with this, and business development projects also deliberately highlight the town center as a lively meeting place together with local traders.
Gastronomy
Neuried's gastronomy is also more local than trendy. The weekly market already brings together regional products and delicacies, and at the village festival, Neuried's gastronomy is explicitly visible as part of local life.
Leisure
Neuried is particularly well positioned for families. The municipality has four children's homes, a kindergarten, elementary school with all-day classes, after-school care and lunchtime supervision; there are also playgrounds, vacation activities, a youth center and a wide range of sports and leisure activities around the TSV, skate park and BMX course.
