HöchstRent Prices 2026
Our Verdict
"Smart Money"
With a median of €14.3/m², this area is a clear SMART_MONEY move for anyone priced out of the inner-city circle. You aren't paying for prestige here, you're paying for functional logistics and river access without the Westend price tag. While the upper end of €18.5/m² usually hits the new builds near the water, the real value lies in the older stock where m² stats still favor the tenant.
The Vibe:Höchst feels like its own self-contained city, defined by the massive Infraserv industrial backdrop and a surprisingly gritty but authentic Altstadt. The crowd is a mix of airport staff, chemical park employees, and people who prioritize S-Bahn proximity over living in a high-rise. You’ll spend more time at the Bolongarogarten or taking the S1/S2 into the city than hunting for avocado toast.

Locals Ask
Does the €14.3/m² median include 'Nebenkosten'?
No, that's the base 'cold' rent. Budget an extra €3 to €4 per square meter for heating and service charges, especially in older buildings.
Is parking a nightmare in the old town area?
Yes, the historic core is a maze of narrow streets; if your rental doesn't come with a private spot, you'll be circling for ages.
How's the investment outlook for this far west?
Strong, as the proximity to the Airport and the Industrial Park provides a constant flow of solid, mid-income tenants.
Are the flight paths a noise issue?
You’re in the landing/takeoff zone, so check the window insulation quality before signing any lease.
Where is the best place to find the €11.8/m² deals?
Look north of the tracks towards Unterliederbach or in the older 1970s apartment blocks away from the river.
