The 22nd district is popular due to its low-rise buildings, a large amount of greenery, quietness, the presence of parks and recreation areas, as well as the proximity of the Danube.
Most of the district is inhabited by local people,majority of whom are the young families with a stable income. Foreigners living there are only 14 %.
Donaustadt, the 22nd district of Vienna, is located in the northeastern part of the city and is the largest of the districts by area, which takes about one-quarter of Vienna, 102.24 square kilometres. The district has a large part to the west of the Danube, Danube Island and Old Danube.
Donaustadt seems to be cut off from the main city through the Danube, which allows it to stay calm away from the tourist bustle. More than 55 % of the territory is covered with greenery, which is 30 percent of all green spaces in Vienna.
Donaustadt is home to the Vienna International Center, which is the campus and building complex hosting the United Nations Office at Vienna, high-rise offices and residential buildings.
