I can only write from my perspective, 110qm are around 950 EUR including heating, but this is a more expensive part of town (not the most expensive though). Fairly cheap compared to other large cities in Germany.

There are many tech jobs, most companies are hiring.

As a developer you might make 35-60k EUR a year, depending on the company and your skills.

Transport is currently 72 EUR a month.

Meals are around 5 EUR for lunch, 10 EUR or above in the evening. Pizza is below 10 EUR. Beer is around 3 EUR.




I might add: Freelancer is 500 EUR to 1000 EUR (and above) a day depending on your skills (obviously ;-)


I have to ask... Doing what exactly can get you constantly 500-1000 EUR per day? I know a lot of good programmers that earn that much per month, so this daily estimate (especially for a freelancer) seems way too high to me.


Programming Java and C#, database development etc. It usually is not for more than some months, people would usually negotiate a lower price if the duration of the project/work is longer.


Oops, I totally forgot about this.

Thanks for sharing your experience... It differs a lot from mine.
