Living in Neuried: green living with a short connection to Munich
Well connected on the outskirts of the city
Neuried is located in the district of Munich 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 area of Forst Kasten to the south. The municipality has a population of 9,062 inhabitants in 2025, an altitude of 559 m above sea level and an area of 9.63 km². This is an attractive combination for prospective residents: you live right on the edge of Munich, but at the same time with a strong connection to open space and a much quieter townscape.
Adjacent neighborhoods and classification
Hadern, Fürstenried, Planegg, Lochham and Gauting are particularly relevant for orientation. It is precisely this neighborhood that makes Neuried suitable for everyday use: Munich is right next door, while the axes to Würmtal and the south-western surrounding area are also within easy reach. Planegg, Gräfelfing, Forstenried and Großhadern are therefore particularly suitable for internal links.
Rental offers in 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
Neuried is clearly relevant to families. Official documents list four children's homes, a kindergarten, an elementary school with all-day classes, lunchtime supervision and after-school care; the municipality also refers to other schools in the surrounding area. The page "Family-friendly offers" adds 11 playgrounds as well as vacation care and youth offers.
Gastronomy
A major residential value factor is the proximity to Forst Kasten and the densely wooded surroundings in the south and west of the municipality. The municipality's recreation page specifically mentions Forsthaus Kasten with its beer garden and playground as well as the "Ortsrand Neuried" landscape conservation area. For prospective residents, this means that the transition to the countryside in Neuried doesn't just start at the weekend, but right on the doorstep.
Leisure
The municipality offers a wide range of sports and leisure activities with TSV Neuried, EC Neuried, a boules court, football pitch, skate park and BMX course. The area around the sports park is particularly attractive for families and active households. The fact that TSV explicitly mentions sports and leisure facilities for all age groups and the whole family clearly speaks for the residential prospects of the location.
