You're forgetting that in some jobs you don't earn as much as in the USA. 1500 euros a month for a flat is extremely expensive. Because you haven't factored in any other costs. Insurance, transport costs (car or public transport), radio licence fees, telephone and internet, television, etc. Then you want to buy furniture (because you can hardly find a flat with furniture), clothes and food and drink. It is said that the additional costs for the flat should not be higher than a third of your monthly salary.
Yo como Alemán quien vive en Munich la ciudad más costoso en todo el Alemaña más bien estoy pensando de mudarme a El Salvador o Paraguay o por algún lado de Asia, depende los leyes de inmigración. Alemaña es bonito y tiene sus aventajas pero también grandes desavenencias. La vida se mas complicada los últimos años y la situación económica sufre de una gran desestabilización debido a la situación política y sicio-politica de los últimos 20 años. Yo personalmente tengo un buen puesto como enfermero registrado pero aún se siente por todos lados que tristemente las cosas no se desarrollan al beneficio del pueblo común de aquí. Tengo más de 60 años de edad y me toca planear mi edad de jubilación en pocos años que ya queda claro que no voy a poder vivir en mi país solo pendiendo en mi pensión. Es bien duro por la gran mayoría de las pensionistas. Han trabajado por todas sus vidas como 45 años y ya no tienen suficiente para vivir y disfrutar a su jubilación. Eso por supuesto nadie te va reportar en el mundo de UA-cam.
Well if someone plan to live in Germany for a longer period or maybe forever i would consider it very rude to not learn and speak german to germans. At home or in public with with eachother no problem but living for 1 years in Germany and buy your bread at a german bakery from a german employee still in english (for example) is very frauned upon. However we would never judge tourists for not speaking german. We would definitly appreciate the efort but never ever would expect tourists to speak german.
8:19 Sorry, but that‘s just wrong. Rents in Frankfurt are significantly *higher* than in Berlin. In fact, Frankfurt is the second most expensive place in all of Germany, „beaten“ only by Munich. (Also, the pictures in that video look *very* familiar, not only the views, but even the angles… I think somebody remixed another video there and simply added a new audio narrative…)
@@Pjalphareacting Rents in Frankfurt have been constantly expensive (in comparison with other places in Germany) pretty much since at least the mid-1980s. The city just can’t grow sufficiently for supply to satisfy demand, as population grew by almost a quarter since then, no matter how many new districts are planned. Frankfurt has run out of space and infrastructure capacity. (Also, there has been a steep decline of affordable, government subsidized housing in the last four decades.)
@@stefanb4375 Uhhh that sounds harsh... living on the wrong side of the Weißwurscht equator... double cheers for you.. heads up, times may get better 😉🍻🌭
Uhm… not really.. everyone UNDER 40, maybe, but even if you limit it to certain age groups, there is also a difference between urban and rural areas because of limited access to gymnasium (the school type qualifying for university education) in rural areas.
11:04: 1,500 Euros for a 3-bedroom-apartment? That´s a joke, isn´t it? Of course this must be what we call "Kaltmiete" (= cold rent) what means it´s just the rent. Incidental expenses like heating, gas, water et cetera will be added on top. Nevertheless 1,500 EUR sounds not so bad ...
Most migration is in the south and West, like everywhere,with the highest percentage of foreigners,people have the least problems.in the east with relatively few foreigners,people are afraid,despite the stats.in 2023 229 people were murdered in Germany. A pretty reliable number.at least 15 times lower than the US,per capita of course.im the brexit referendum it was the same,the more foreigners, the higher Pro EU vote.(foreigners couldn't vote)
4:56 English is the international business language so no problem for me to speak it but as most of my colleagues in the Munich office are Germans we talk - of course - German or Bavarian. Also with business partners from Germany or German speaking countries like Austria or Switzerland. But with international business partners or colleagues from abroad we have to communicate of course - in English.
Here's the problem for people wanting to learn german in Germany: Everyone will speak english to you, mostly out of politeness, but also for efficiency-reasons or to display their own flawless oxford english skills. It's up to you to figure that out for yourself and risk some rolling eyes
If there are fees,public transport in the City is included,as well as reduced prizes at basically any occassions.I paid 20 Euro to visit a Opera play f.e.

Munich and Berlin are expensive for Germany. Not compared to NY or LA.

I am guessing the prices went up postcovid?
Berlin is still one of the cheapest metropolises/capitals, and not just in the western world.

Almost everyone in Germany speaks English. But the German language is so expressive and diverse that a lot gets lost in the English translation.
from what I understand german is very descriptive
