Calculation
Cultural access per planning area: log-damped density of collective cultural POIs nearby (number of facilities, the first place counts strongly, further ones level off). Library (weight 0.20, 1,000 m), theatre (0.15, 1,500 m), museum (0.15, 1,500 m), cinema (0.12, 1,500 m), community culture centre (0.13, 1,200 m), gallery (0.10, 1,200 m), public art (0.08, 800 m), club (0.07, 1,200 m). Source OpenStreetMap (ODbL). A separate dimension outside the overall score, because culture clusters in the city centre. Log damping prevents outer Bezirke from dropping to zero across the board.

Gaps in coverage
- Cultural venues from OpenStreetMap (crowdsourcing): individual locations may be missing or out of date.
- The gap between inner city and outskirts is real: cultural infrastructure is concentrated in the city centre.
Not included
- No rating of programme, quality or admission price of the venue.
- Stolpersteine and monuments do not feed into the culture dimension.
