Help for Getting Started
Bavaria is on the move. This is especially the case in terms of population growth. For instance, every year around 85,000 people move to Munich alone. Many of the newcomers come from other countries. The city is equipped to help them, as are most of the other large communities in Bavaria. For example, the city’s comprehensive website can be viewed in German, English, French and Italian. Extensive support is offered under the theme “New in Munich”.
In addition, English-language magazines and numerous private communities help further.
You will probably find it very easy to meet people from your own country in Munich, because about 300,000 people – close to 25 percent of the inhabitants of Munich – come from other countries.
Interesting Internet contact points for newcomers in Nuremberg are the websites of the city government and the German-American Institute Nuremberg. Among other things, their websites offer links to German-American associations, as well as international schools and preschools.
