I lived in Germany for 21 years, for part of that time I was in Hocheim am Main. I found Wiesbaden expensive I liked Mainz more. My favourite German cities are Hamburg, Luebeck, Freiburg, Heidelberg, Koblenz and Trier. I've since been to Weimar and have been recommended Dresden. Renting an apartment in W. is expensive, so I was told. You showed a lot of the city, well presented.👍🍺🇬🇧

[@PowerControl]

Try Regensburg as well. Never been destroyed, got poor so that there are still a lot of old buildings.

[@dagmarkiontke]

Wiesbaden ist more expensive, because many celebrities and rich people live here. In Mainz and the other cities live more normal people.

Wiesbaden has no Tram or Subway but an extremely effective and effortable Bus System

[@mini_suite]

[@AshleyLourenco]

I started following your channel a year ago when we found out we would be moving to Wiesbaden! We've been here for 11 months, now. I've learned so much about German culture and food by watching your shenanigans. Wiesbaden has been a wonderful place to live, and if you choose to move here, you will not be disappointed. :)

[@Ashley-vx9fg]

I’m moving to Wiesbaden in January. Initially I wasn’t excited but I’ve been watching all sorts of videos and reading all sorts of blogs so I’m warming up to the idea now. I’m having my first baby a few months after I get there and I’m afraid I’ll be homesick.

[@AshleyLourenco]

@@Ashley-vx9fg Wiesbaden is such a beautiful city. I definitely recommend getting connected as soon as you arrive to curb some of that homesickness (because it is real and a very valid thing to feel!! Especially when you are an expecting mama!). Adjustments can be scary and overwhelming, but I promise it DOES get better. Just give it time. I'm due with my second kiddo next week and I'm delivering at a German clinic, so if you have any questions or need any support, you just let me know once you're here.

[@Oceanic83]

Yeah, there's definitely a Mainz-Wiesbaden rivalry. Wiesbaden was always viewed as being more for upper-class people and maybe being more snobby by the Mainzers. But Mainz is now getting more expensive to live in while available apartments are becoming scarce. It's not the hidden gem that it once was just a few years ago. A lot of my friends there have had to move further and further out. I'm heavily bias being half-American, and half-Mainzer, but I'd highly recommend moving there if the opportunity knocks.

Wiesbaden is a very beautiful city to live in with a lot of flair and quality. The proximity to the Rheingau and Taunus but also to Frankfurt make the region extremely attractive.

I've been to Wiesbaden, Mainz, Bonn, Koblenz, Dusseldorf, Koln/Deutz, Franfurt/Sachsenhausen, Freiburg and a few other smaller cities I can't remember. Spent 10 days in Freiburg during the Summer Solstice a few years ago. There is something very special about the Dreisam River in Freiburg during the Solstice! The added bonus of having the Black Forest made this my favorite German city. It's also the warmest city in Germany. Maybe go check it out during the solstice. I saw so many people relaxing and enjoying the calm river at dusk. Very serene.

[@luckyqualmi]

Sitting at the Dreisam on a summer evening is awesome. :) Freiburg also has the "Föhn", a strong warm wind often coming in the afternoon. The city center isn't too big and besides the Schwarzwald the Lake of Constace isn't that far too.

[@markusoberndorfer4634]

Maybe you should try to find a home at the Linde area in Mainz-Kostheim. Since WW2 it belongs to Wiesbaden and it is close to the mouth of river Main to Rhine. This area will be finished in the next months. There is also a fine Döner grill on the other side of the road. You can reach Mainz and Wiesbaden downtown in a couple of minutes. (When the debris of the exploded bridge was taken away …)

[@NJbakintheday]

Finally, the area that's most near and dear to me. I was stationed about a 15 minute ride on the S-Bahn from Wiesbaden, in Rüsselsheim Am Main. We were technically part of the Mainz military community, but I also made lots of trips to Wiesbaden. There used to be a much larger U.S. military presence in that whole area back in the day, but my old base in Rüsselsheim, along with most of the bases in Mainz and Wiesbaden are either closed or drastically scaled down now. I'm planning a trip to Germany in 2023 and will definitely spend some time back in that Rhein-Main area. It'd be cool to have a beer with y'all.

When I got discharged from the hospital, I told my unit not to bother picking me up. I'd just take the train home. After being in the bed so long, that walk to the hauptbahnhof almost took me out! 😄

As a German working in Wiesbaden I can say that it's true that it is a beautiful city with a great amount of cultural and historical places. But for me it's the people who often make it not the nicest city around. They tend to either be arrogant or even rude at some points. If you cross the river Rhine and go to Mainz, it's a whole different vibe in my eyes. Yet I totally agree with most of the points you made, that's just my very personal experience.

[@RayyMusik]

Confirmed. I lived in Wiesbaden for 29 years. While the city itself is more beautiful than Mainz, many people are ‘schickimicki‘ (fancy-schmancy) or just very old, while the Mainz population is more down to earth and younger due to many students.

Enroe was born, or in the park behind the Casino where you find a statue of Russian writer Dostojewski - his novel "The Gambler" referrs to a larger group of Russian oligars, aristrocats who loved to spend time in their Villas during summer , as also traditionally Kaiser Wilhelm spent the month of May in Wiesbaden and so did many European Royals, - at one point in history Wiesbaden had more millionaires than any other city in Germany - it just was the place to be - and it's visible till today - and b.t.w the Schlosspark in Biebrich ( is an traditional location at Pfingsten of one of the most scenic and elegant horse show tournaments in Europe - certainly you missed the famous "Cafe Maldaner" - would have given you 100% authentic taste of Vienna, so you sure have to come back and check it out :-)

Over the last 20 years Wiesbaden lost its former beauty and charm, little still left, due to unfortunate decicions made by the city magistrate.

Mainz would absolutely be my personel preference.

K-Town was my grandpa’s first duty station out of the US in the 50s. A couple months into his assignment his American girl friend followed him to Germany (by ship) … they were the first American couple that got married at the Standesamt in Kaiserslautern 😊. Over the course of the following years they had three daughters, PCSed all over the place and got stationed in Germany a total of 3 times. They moved to a small village close to Wiesbaden during his 3rd tour…and decided to stay once he had retired from the air-force and got himself a contractor job. All his daughters ended up marrying a German and stayed as well ….Ironically, decades later, his granddaughter - me 😉 - met an US soldier stationed in Kaiserslautern, got married and after a few years received orders for Fort Bragg / Fayetteville North Carolina ….which is approximately 15 miles away from my grandpa’s home town 😅 I personally love Wiesbaden … unlike Mainz, it wasn’t really bombed during WWll, so all the incredibly beautiful old houses remained intact.

[@dagmarkiontke]

Auch Wiesbaden wurde zerbombt und es gab viele Tote und Verletzte. Andere Städte wurden noch stärker zerstört. Wiesbaden hatte Glück, daß viele historische Gebäude (möglicherweise vorsätzlich) von Briten und Amerikanern verschont blieben. Die Amerikaner hatten vielleicht damals schon Wiesbaden als ihre Residenz im Nachkriegsdeutschland auserkoren und verschonten deshalb die Stadt. Wenn man die Stadt genau ansieht, kann man sehen, wo nach dem Krieg ein Neuaufbau stattfand.

Where we used to be able to drive through american neighborhoods and used to see tons of the high school students and military personell downtown on any given weekend, the neighborhoods are now fenced in and the only Americans you see downtown now are civilian tourists. Definitely no military. They are pretty much groomed to stay in their areas and be afraid of going outside now. I've lived in the Mainz/Wiesbaden area for over 32 years now. I spent 14 years in Mainz before moving to one of the Wiesbaden suburbs zo be closer to work... Stupidest decision I ever made. Mainz is nicer, friendlier and more affordable. Wiesbaden is snobby, expensive, and the city government has bungled just about every decision they've made since the early 2000s. As a result, the inner city has become less attractive, and important old traditional shops and institutions have either closed or left . Downtown has lost a lot of its former glory. If I could afford it, I would move back to Mainz in a split second.
