🇩🇪 Where to live in Frankfurt

Frankfurt's residential areas sit close together, and most have a rapid-transit station within a few minutes' walk. The contrast is between older quarters of Altbau streets, villas and village-style high streets, and newer or reviving districts built around towers, reclaimed rail land and the harbour. The south bank has its own character, with taverns and the museum embankment.
