Saarland - Saarbrücken - Real estate market in general

If the whole city in Germany smells of fresh baguettes and sweet croissants in the morning, then you are most likely in Saarbrücken. Whether you are here to work, live, study or just to spend a weekend: Due to its close proximity to France and Luxembourg, Saarbrücken with its German-French culture and way of life always attracts people. Here, the charm of a small town mixes with the flair of a metropolis, which is unparalleled in Germany.
Connoisseurs of the city describe Saarbrücken as the "heart of a flourishing business region with an international character". Admittedly, the city is quite small with a population of around 180,000. However, Saarbrücken's big-city flair easily rivals that of Berlin and Munich.

Saarbrücken is known as one of Germany's most popular university cities and a hotbed of cutting-edge research, particularly in the field of computer technology.
