Each question below is answered on the map type that fits it — Score, Amount, Fair share, Missing, Clusters or Variety — hex by hex. A hex is one hexagon on the map, about 350 m across (roughly 0.1 km²). Each answer leads with what the map found, lists its Standouts — the ranked groups of nearby hexes that come out on top — with the numbers behind them, and states what the data cannot tell you. The link at the end opens that exact map of Berlin on the same map type, so you can change the measure, the division or the comparison and get a different answer.
None of these is the only “right” way to ask. They are starting points chosen to show which measures exist for Berlin and how the map type you pick changes what you can honestly say.
café demand-and-competition score — resident counts and walkable streets against existing café presence
The highest-ranking Standouts are Marzahn, Hellersdorf, and Wedding. Marzahn leads with a score of 89.3/100 across 49 hexes, where the data shows ≈2 cafés nearby, ≈0.24 km of walkable streets, and ≈49,107 residents. Each Standout is a group of high-scoring hexes within a 1,200 m radius. On the Missing map, Zehlendorf and Lichtenrade (south) are short of cafés for the people who live there within a 10-minute walk (about 2 and 2 short).
A shortlist by 3 factors, not a site recommendation.
How this answer was built
Three factors: how many people are around, how walkable the streets are, and how many of this business type are already mapped there. The last is scored inverted, so a hex ranks high when demand factors are strong and existing presence is thin.

What this can’t tell you
This is a shortlist, not a site recommendation. It has no rent, no footfall, no unit availability, no licensing and no catchment modeling, and a thin mapped presence is not proof that a hex is unserved.
Try changing it
· Raise the importance of the competition factor to prioritize hexes with the least existing presence.
· Swap the demand factor for the age band or household type your customers actually fall into.
· Draw your own catchment on the map to score just that area.
All of these are adjustable on the Berlin map on the Free Tier.
The same question for other kinds of place
Same factors and importance, only the kind swapped. The Standouts are the Score map’s; the last column is where that kind is short for the people who live there, on the Missing map.
This answer ranks every hex on café competition (less is better, importance 45%), pedestrian length m (more is better, importance 25%), and Residents (more is better, importance 30%), then groups the top-scoring hexes into the Standouts below.

Which neighborhoods of Berlin are the most walkable?
Pedestrian street length blended with transit stop count — a walkability score (Overture Maps)
In Berlin, the highest-ranking Standouts are Mitte, Tiergarten (Mitte), and Gesundbrunnen (Mitte). Mitte leads with a score of 68.1/100 across 50 hexes, where the data shows ≈0.2 km of walkable streets and ≈54 transit stops. Each Standout is a group of high-scoring hexes within a 1,200 m radius.
A shortlist by 2 factors, not a site recommendation.
How this answer was built
Both measures describe the street and transit network, so they sit in the same universe and combine cleanly. Pedestrian length is meters of walkable way; transit stop count is mapped stops.

What this can’t tell you
Network density is not pedestrian experience. It says nothing about pavement width, traffic, lighting, gradient, or how often the transit stops are actually served.

Neither measure describes the people living there, and more space per person is not wealth — low occupancy raises it just as large dwellings do. The rent is an average across the housing stock, not a quoted price.
Try changing it
· Drop the rent term to rank on space alone.
· Switch to living space per apartment to describe dwellings rather than occupancy.
All of these are adjustable on the Berlin map on the Free Tier.

Where are pharmacies missing for the people who live there in Berlin?
Mapped pharmacies within a 10-minute walk against the number Berlin's rate predicts for the residents there, on the Missing map — Overture Maps and Zensus 2022
Within a 10-minute walk of Marzahn (Marzahn-Hellersdorf), pharmacies fall short of Berlin's rate by about 1 (2 mapped, 2 expected). Borsigwalde (Reinickendorf) and Prenzlauer Berg (Pankow) are each short by about 1.
One hex is too small to show a shortfall: at the Berlin rate, less than half of one is expected in 95 of every 100 hexes. Within a 10-minute walk 19 hexes are read together, so a shortfall has room to show. Expected is modeled from the city rate. A zero means nothing mapped, never nothing there.

What this can’t tell you
Rent is the average across the housing stock, not what any particular flat costs or what a new tenant would pay. Stop density is not service frequency, and neither measure says anything about journey times to anywhere specific.
Try changing it
· Add pedestrian street length to weigh walkability alongside transit.
· Flip the rent direction to see the high-rent, high-transit hexes instead.
· Swap rent per m² for the post-1990 large-flat rent to hold the housing type constant.

Within a 10-minute walk of Wittenau (Reinickendorf), bakeries fall short of Berlin's rate by about 1 (1 mapped, 2 expected). Neu-Hohenschönhausen (Lichtenberg) and Hellersdorf (Marzahn-Hellersdorf) are short by about 4 and 2.
One hex is too small to show a shortfall: at the Berlin rate, less than half of one is expected in 87 of every 100 hexes. Within a 10-minute walk 19 hexes are read together, so a shortfall has room to show. Expected is modeled from the city rate. A zero means nothing mapped, never nothing there.

Where are parks missing for the people who live there in Berlin?
Mapped parks within a 10-minute walk against the number Berlin's rate predicts for the residents there, on the Missing map — Overture Maps and Zensus 2022
Within a 10-minute walk of Alt-Hohenschönhausen, parks fall short of Berlin's rate by about 1 (0 mapped, 1 expected). Lichterfelde (south-west) and Lichterfelde (south-west 2) are each short by about 1.
One hex is too small to show a shortfall: at the Berlin rate, less than half of one is expected in 97 of every 100 hexes. Within a 10-minute walk 19 hexes are read together, so a shortfall has room to show. Expected is modeled from the city rate. A zero means nothing mapped, never nothing there.

Every answer reads Berlin hex by hex on one of the map types below, then groups the hexes at the end it asks about into Standouts. Sources: Zensus 2022.
Score — Each factor ranks every hex from 0 to 100 against the rest of the city; the Score adds them by importance, and a hex with no data for a factor is scored on the factors it has.
Amount — The Amount map shows one measure in every hex, as a total, per 1 000 residents, per km² or as a share of its category; a Standout pools the hexes inside its circle.
Variety — The Variety map scores how mixed a set of kinds is in each hex, from one kind only to an even mix; a Standout groups the most mixed third.
Fair share — The Fair share map divides each hex's rate by the whole city's rate, so 1× is exactly average; a Standout groups the hexes furthest from it on one side.
Missing — The Missing map applies the whole city's rate to each hex's residents to say how many there would be at that rate, and shows the difference in whole places.
Clusters — The Clusters map tests whether a hex and its neighbors hold more, or less, of a measure than chance would explain, with a correction for testing every hex at once.
Each hex is an H3 resolution 9 hexagon. Each Standout gathers hexes within 1.2 km of its center, and the 5 strongest are kept. Change the size on the map to widen or tighten them.
Hexes are only ranked where the thing being measured could actually exist, so a Less is better factor cannot present empty parkland as an opportunity. Shops, homes and offices need a building; transit stops, EV chargers and bike docks only need a street or path. A hex that already has some of the measure is always ranked.
Dating the numbers
Zensus 2022 is a single-day count published on a 100 m grid; it is not updated between census rounds.
Places, buildings and transportation come from a dated Overture Maps release. A place record means the place is mapped, not that it is licensed, open, or of any particular size.
Zensus 2022 is a single vintage, so nothing here describes growth, decline or any change over time.
How far each answer can be pushed
Each question is labeled with a tier. The tier caps what the answer may claim, whatever the numbers say.
T4 — This is a ranking of hexes, not a measurement of people. The factors it combines are counted in different universes — the data contains no table crossing them — so a high rank means both factors rank high in the same hex, not that they describe the same residents.
Builds MapBees's location-intelligence pipeline end to end — census and Overture Maps ingestion, H3 hex scoring, and the map interface — and writes the methodology behind every number on the site.
