🇩🇪 Konz: the verdict, plainly
What the tables imply but never say — what Konz asks you to accept, and what it gives back.
Konz trades time for money — the rent is among the gentlest in the area, the commute among the longest.
With 18,345 inhabitants, Konz scores 4.4 out of 10 overall, which puts it in the lower part of the 127 profiled cities. Its rent of 15.0 €/m² is lower than in 85% of them, and its 51-minute peak commute shorter than in 30%.
Its strengths: cost of living (7.4) and transport (5.6). Its weak point: schools, at 3.9 — and since the overall score applies a worst-axis penalty, that weakness weighs more than a plain average would suggest.
The commune is a genuine feeder of cross-border workers: 2,020 of its residents work in Luxembourg, 11.0 per 100 inhabitants. At that level the local economy, the daily rhythm and even the housing market are set by the Grand Duchy.
