Which areas of Berlin are quietest?
Spandau and Reinickendorf, where 27% and 24% of streets are quiet. Noise is estimated from roads and railways; aircraft, bars and neighbours aren't counted.

In most of it. On 56% of streets a shop, café, pharmacy, doctor, school and gym are all within a 10-minute walk, and 17% have good public transport nearby.
Which areas of Berlin are safest?
By our combined estimate, Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf (71) and Mitte (70). It mixes our street estimate, the Hoodmaps crowd map and region-wide crime figures, and any of them can be wrong.
Why do some central areas of Berlin score low?
We score for living there, not visiting. A street in a tourist hotspot, on a loud main road, or where you'd need a car can't score high, however nice the rest is.
