Freiham
Freiham is located in the district 22 Aubing-Lochhausen-Langwied on the western outskirts of Munich. The district itself is historically characterized by Aubing, Lochhausen and Langwied; Freiham is the youngest and most dynamic part of this large western urban area. From a residential perspective, this is particularly interesting because although Freiham is clearly part of Munich, it offers significantly more space, new infrastructure and larger open spaces than many established districts close to the city center.
One major advantage of the location is the combination of a new urban quarter and existing surroundings. Freiham is not isolated, but is closely connected to Aubing, to the western part of Munich and to the local recreational areas in the surrounding area. The city of Munich explicitly describes the new district as a place with plenty of space for recreation; at the same time, the adjacent Freiham estate is mentioned as a landmark that shapes the landscape.
Aubing, Westkreuz, Lochhausen and Langwied are particularly important reference points for the residential perspective in Freiham - Freiham is closely linked to the surrounding western part of Munich in everyday life. This is particularly important for those looking for a new home: although Freiham is a new district with its own identity, it also benefits from the established neighborhoods in the west of Munich.
Freiham is not a historically grown Munich district, but a planned new district with a clear structure. This is exactly what characterizes the feeling of living here: instead of random buildings, modern apartment blocks, new squares, wide pathways, district axes and clearly defined open spaces dominate. The city of Munich describes Freiham as a "city within the city" and a compact new district with short distances.
A key feature is the strong mix of housing, education and infrastructure. The educational campus is already in operation and comprises a grammar school, secondary school, elementary school and special education center; a total of around 3,000 pupils attend the campus. This is a clear locational advantage, especially for families and those looking to live in an environment suitable for everyday life.
Typical resident groups in the district are, for example
This classification results from the new neighborhood structure, the educational campus, the planned workplaces and the quick connection to the city center.

In the Freiham district center, shopping is an essential part of the neighborhood concept. The official retail concept follows the guiding principle of "open shopping", with the entrances to the stores facing the public space. As a result, the area does not look like a closed-off shopping center, but more like an urban center with everyday use.
The new Zentrum is also important for restaurants and meeting places. This is particularly important in a new district, because it is not just apartments that are being built here, but places for everyday life and the neighborhood. This classification is based on the official concept of the district center and Freiham's orientation as a district of short distances.
The City of Munich expressly emphasizes Freiham's high proportion of recreational areas and its connection to the landscape. The combination of a new quarter and large open spaces is one of Freiham's strongest residential qualities. This is a clear advantage for walks, exercise and recreation close to home.
