Editorial summary, not legal advice. Verify with the relevant consulate before applying — visa programs change with little notice.

Field notes

More expensive than Berlin or Prague but sub-Amsterdam. The 7th and 6th districts are the typical nomad anchors. Austria has no proper DNV; Schengen-clock applies.

Real winters (Jan around 1°C, occasional snow), warm summers (Jul–Aug peak 22°C), bright shoulder months. Christmas markets (December) and Naschmarkt summer evenings are the seasonal anchors.
