Commuting to Bregenz: which town around the city fits you?

The fastest towns into Bregenz are Kennelbach, Lauterach and Wolfurt.

Commuting for less rent is realistic, if you pick the right town. wohnwahn routed every inhabited 250 m cell around Bregenz against the real timetable, rather than estimating by straight line. Within one town the spread is wide: in Kennelbach the best spots are ≈ 9 minutes out.

And because a town is not an address: near the station, the same town can be half an hour closer than at its edge. The map shows the exact spot.

Computed with wohnwahn’s own router on the official Stadtbus Bregenz, Landbus and ÖBB timetables (weekday ~8 a.m.; “late” = departures after 11 p.m.). Honest gap: regional buses (VOR) are not in the public timetable data, so these numbers show rail and city transit. A town with a local bus to its station is better in reality than in this table, never worse.

The travel-time map, day and late evening

Dark green means fast. Every square is an inhabited 250 m cell with its real transit time to Bregenz station, computed on the timetable (weekday morning, and after 11 p.m. for the way home).

fastslow
≤ 12 … > 42 min

Only inhabited cells are coloured. Cells without a rated connection (regional-bus gap in the timetable data) stay uncoloured instead of pretending a value. Tap the map for the exact spot, day and late evening.

Station proximity decides

The same town, half an hour apart: how much faster the best residential spots are compared to the town’s median. Choosing the address by the station matters more than choosing the town.

Doren−43 Minmin faster than the town medianbest spots ≈ 28 min · median ≈ 71 minSchwarzenberg−25 Minmin faster than the town medianbest spots ≈ 41 min · median ≈ 66 minLustenau−24 Minmin faster than the town medianbest spots ≈ 13 min · median ≈ 37 min

What to check before moving out of the city

The last connection decides

A 25-minute ride at 8 a.m. can be a 50-minute odyssey at 11 p.m. That’s why every number here has a late-evening value: toggle the map and check the town list before you commit.

Can you walk to the station?

The best spots in a commuter town are the ones in walking distance of the S-Bahn. The gap between “near the station” and “town edge” is often 15 to 30 minutes, every single day.

Park & ride is a lever

If you can’t live near the station, driving to it works: the list shows the closest park-and-ride sites per town, with capacity where known.

Our numbers are the rail

Regional buses are missing from the open timetable data. If a local bus feeds the station, reality is better than our table. We say that openly instead of guessing.

Frequently asked questions

Which town has the fastest commute to Bregenz?

Measured by the median residential spot it is Kennelbach: ≈ 14 minutes to Bregenz station by transit, best spots from ≈ 9 minutes. Computed on the real timetable, not as-the-crow-flies.

How long is the commute from Kennelbach or Lauterach?

From Kennelbach the median home is ≈ 14 minutes from Bregenz station (best spots ≈ 9), from Lauterach ≈ 17 minutes (best ≈ 6). Late in the evening it takes ≈ 14 and ≈ 16 minutes respectively.

Do I still get home late at night?

Every town in the table has a separate late value (departures after 11 p.m.). The difference to the daytime value is the honest price of a night out, check it before you sign.

Is living around Bregenz really cheaper?

Per square metre, usually clearly yes; market analyses regularly find several hundred euros of difference for a family flat. We deliberately don’t publish own price figures for the towns yet: they’ll come with real listings. Price is only half the equation anyway; time and frequency are the other half, and that’s what this page measures.

Where do the travel times come from, and what’s the gap?

wohnwahn runs its own routing on the official Stadtbus Bregenz, Landbus and ÖBB timetables (weekday ~8 a.m., late ~11 p.m.), per inhabited 250 m cell, refreshed monthly (as of September 2026). Regional VOR buses are not in the open data, so the numbers reflect rail and city transit: reality with a feeder bus is better, never worse.
