Any recommendations for neighborhoods that don't have "level 7 hipsters"? ;)

Kreuzberg has nice spots where not only level 7 hipsters are hanging out. Friedrishain is way worse (if you consider that worse, some enjoy hipster presence). Personally I don't mind hipsters, they are usually nice people.

Nice article, as a born berliner I can confirm all of this. Actually I can add, that by law you have to register yourself at a Buergeramt within 7 days. It's funny how in our german minds bureaucrats could care less about you standing in line and yourself feeling like just another number. (considering what I have gone through in other countries I have to agree with you) Thanks for sharing! :)

I liked Neukoelln but was only there for a couple weeks.
