Who doesn't know him: Herbert Grönemeyer, probably the best-known godfather of the city of Bochum, who dedicated his own hymn to his hometown almost 30 years ago. But if you think that's all Bochum has to offer, you're wrong.


Life in Bochum

With a population of around 380,000, the city of Bochum is considered the center of the central Ruhr region and is the second largest city in Westphalia, picturesquely nestled by the rivers Ruhr and Emscher. Gelsenkirchen and Essen are the major cities immediately adjacent to Bochum. In addition to extensive industrial zones, Bochum has unexpectedly large green areas, with many parks and forests full of holly. About 40% of the city area is green space, giving the city a partly rural feel. In addition to the old town and the modern city center, Bochum shines with an urban diversity ranging from industrial and multicultural residential areas, such as in the district of Wattenscheid, to a near-natural living space in the south of Bochum, which captivates with its charming transition to the Bergisches Land. In addition, Bochum offers an extremely attractive range of facilities for education and training, from daycare centers and various types of schools to the university and several colleges. A well-developed transportation network makes getting around within Bochum and to neighboring cities a breeze.
Last but not least, extended walks in Bochum's forests, bicycle tours, excellent productions by the Bochum Schauspielhaus and visits to the world-famous Bochum Symphony Orchestra are just a part of Bochum's cultural and recreational scene. Since Bochum was part of the European Capital of Culture 2010, the city's popularity in terms of sightseeing and culture has increased immensely. The legendary and world-famous musical "Starlight Express" is particularly popular.

Working in Bochum

Similar to the caterpillar that has become a butterfly, Bochum has developed from a former mining and steel construction town into a modern industrial and service location with a constant stream of new jobs. A total of 15,000 companies and corporations have settled here, for example Aral, GEA, UCI Cinema, GLS-Bank and the regional private brewery Moritz Fiege, to name just a few. However, Bochum's clearly largest employers are the universities and the technology centers located next to them. Around 6,000 people work there in the fields of science, research and administration. Even though new job opportunities for academics as well as for unskilled workers and students are regularly created in all parts of the city, Bochum's unemployment rate is slightly above the national average, despite everything

Living in Bochum

New housing of all sizes has been built here for years. The search for real estate in Bochum for rent or for a purchase, increases constantly. Commission-free offers are particularly in demand, both from families and business people who work in Bochum and want to live close to the workplace and the colorful cultural world of Bochum. Particularly in Wattenscheid and in the east of Bochum, inexpensive accommodation of all sizes can be found. Due to the many universities, a particularly large number of students live here, who naturally have only a small budget for housing and are particularly interested in offers free of brokerage fees. Large families are also increasingly looking for housing here due to the lower rents, even if they have to cut back on the general quality of living, depending on the district. It is clear that private-to-private offers are increasingly sought after. The south of Bochum near the Ruhr valley, on the other hand, is characterized by picturesque and idyllic residential areas in a natural and appealing living environment. As a result, the rental prices for apartments or houses are at a fairly upscale rent level. But even here, offers can always be found that do not require a broker's commission. However, it is a peculiarity of Bochum that, compared to other major cities, there is no such thing as a flawless prime location. Even in the noble parts of the city you can find many old colliery houses and also less pretty 50s buildings. Thus, even in the so-called "rich districts", the price range for real estate extends from cheap to expensive.
Ingeneral, it can be said that the prices for real estate in Bochum are below the average prices in Germany. Often money can be saved additionally, because no broker commission results.
