Score breakdown

What stands out in Tegel

The strongest measurements here are social infrastructure (10.0/10), community spaces (9.9/10) and transit access (9.7/10) — social infrastructure is the highest single reading on the page.

The weakest are natural features (5.4/10), cultural life (5.8/10) and street life (5.8/10). A low reading is not automatically a dealbreaker — natural features matters far more to some people than others — but it is where Tegel gives up ground against better-scoring areas.

Underneath it: green spaces 8.1, environmental quality 9.2 and natural features 5.4, each out of 10. The gap between environmental quality and natural features is what shapes the category — the area is much better at one than the other.

How this area was scored

This page is built from 1 analysis of Tegel. Each analysis reads satellite and street-level imagery for the area, scores the five categories above, and the page shows the average.

Scores are a starting point, not a substitute for standing on the street. They are consistent — every area is measured the same way, so comparing two of them is meaningful — but they cannot tell you about a noisy neighbour, a good landlord or a bad bus route. The community section on this page is where residents fill in that sort of detail.
