Today, foreigners make up 30% of the population. Low rental costs accompany the poverty in Wedding. Therefore, like many inexpensive areas in large cities, it is home to a vibrant artists’ community. Many galleries have been founded by artists to provide a space for themselves and their peers to showcase their works.
Wedding has so far not experienced the boom and development of the 1990s in Berlin. Unlike many other 19th-century working class districts the original character of Wedding has been mostly preserved.
Recently, however, more and more students and artists have moved to Wedding due to lower rental costs and a fairly high level of quality of life. As a result, many new Bohemian cafés, restaurants and clubs, organic food stores and markets have been established, an art-house cinema and an urban gardening project has successfully started and high-brow galleries have discovered that area. It is still said though to be a place to find the Schnauze mit Herz (big mouth and big heart) of the Berlin working class.
