OK that surely are nice points for Berlin. If one like all those things. But does it justify the higher cost of living? To me it doesn't.

I don't drink, I hate the UBahn (last time I used it was 20yrs ago), rarely eat outside (we have a cook) and also don't visit cinemas or whatever you exactly meant by "big productions" (I assume musicals or bands and the likes?) We're more the boring museum-types ๐Ÿ˜

But the Ruhrgebiet has tons of all that too I guess (never been in Berlin long enough to know). If our city does not, the next one does. Or the surroundings. But unless you live in some remote foresty places there, it's not great.
