Berlin Mitte in the Housing Market Report Berlin 2017



The borough or district of “Mitte“ in its current form was shaped by the administrative reform of 2001. It is made up by three former independent districts. “Mitte” which is the historic origin of Berlin, government and cultural centre and part of former East Berlin, Wedding and Tiergarten which were previously part of West Berlin. Especially Berliners will still make this differentiation, especially when looking for a new home. Just comparing the average rents, the old boundaries are still visible but so is the push of higher rents from the centre out (on the right in the map below).
