Köniz borders the city of Bern to the south-west and is one of the largest municipalities in the canton of Bern, yet parts of it still feel rural. Wabern, at the foot of the Gurten – Bern's local hill – and Liebefeld, Spiegel and Niederwangen are suburbs right next to the capital. Schliern, Niederscherli, Thörishaus and Mittelhäusern, by contrast, are surrounded by fields and farms. The language is German. Many households are families and commuters in flats or houses with gardens. They often need babysitting, garden work and hedge trimming, cleaning and furniture assembly, while older residents look for help with errands or computer questions. For a move, check your lease: customary termination dates in the canton of Bern differ by municipality.
