Braunau District is an administrative district of Austria, situated in the state of Upper Austria. The region lies along the international border with Germany, sharing frontiers with the Bavarian districts of Rottal-Inn, Altötting, and Traunstein, as well as several Austrian districts including Salzburg-Umgebung.
The local housing market is relatively inexpensive compared to the Austrian average. Mattighofen holds the largest share of the housing stock by a wide margin, with Schalchen and Eggelsberg trailing far behind. Prices vary significantly between these municipalities. Palting is the most expensive place to buy a home in the district, with prices that far exceed those in the main housing hub of Mattighofen. Conversely, St. Pantaleon stands out as one of the most affordable options in the region, where property costs a fraction of what buyers pay in Palting.
