München is not cheap city to reside in nor are the suburbs.
Compared to..... San Francisco?
München isn't cheap, but it's cheaper than San Francisco
True, but San Francisco is one of the most expensive cities in the world. Munich is the most expensive place to live in Germany and one of the most expensive in Europe so the move is still somewhat questionable.
Someone else in the comments said that it might be due to having a workforce in Munich that can't be easily fired because of German labor laws, and that could be an explanation
More than even Berlin? God dayum.
