Neukölln

Neukölln is now the trendiest and hippest neigbouhood of Berlin. Since the local Tempelhof Airport closed in 2008, it started attracting a lot of students and creatives  who have contributed to the gentrification of certain areas of this borough, mainly in the streets between Kottbusser Tor (Kreuzberg) and Hermannplatz (Neukölln). This piece of Neukölln has since then been called "Kreuzkölln", as it was minutes walk to the hip and trendy Kreuzberg but was still much more affordable to live in. New bars and restaurants started popping up in this area, making it even more attractive for young people. In the past 5 years, the area around Weserstrasse has become the magnet for everyone who looks for the new trendy Berlin. The square meter price here, however, is still considerably lower than in similar popular streets of Kreuzberg. And if you extend your search further down to Sonnenallee and Hermmanstrasse, the prices are even lower for now - but the gentrification will reach this area very soon too. Now everyone wants to live in Neukölln.
