ObergiesingRent Prices 2026
Our Verdict
"The Grid"
At a median of €22.5/m², Obergiesing is no longer the bargain it was five years ago. It sits firmly in THE_GRID because while the location is central, the housing stock is often cramped and lacks the high-end finishes of its neighbors. You are essentially paying a premium for the proximity to the Isar and the 'cool' factor of a district that is rapidly gentrifying but still lacks decent parking.
The Vibe:Obergiesing is a mix of post-war social housing blocks and gritty 1900s Altbaus that haven't all been polished yet. The area around Silberhornstraße is dominated by heavy traffic and concrete, but the hilly streets offer a raw, unpretentious energy you won't find in the suburbs. It is a district defined by the U2 line and the constant presence of TSV 1860 Munich jerseys.

Locals Ask
Is €28/m² realistic for Obergiesing?
Only for brand-new developments or fully furnished 'boarding houses' near the Giesinger Berg; for anything else, it's an overpayment.
How does match day at Grünwalder Stadion affect residents?
Expect blocked sidewalks, loud fans, and zero chance of finding street parking within a kilometer of the pitch.
What is the investment outlook for rental properties here?
The m² stats show steady growth, but the ceiling is capped by the aging building substance that often requires massive energy retrofitting.
Where can I find the lower €17.5/m² rent prices?
Look for older 1950s cooperatives or unrenovated apartments further east toward Fasangarten.
Is the noise on Tegernseer Landstraße a dealbreaker?
If your windows face the street, yes—the traffic volume is relentless and the particulate matter levels are among the city's highest.
