Austria's official public transport classes, the ÖV-Güteklassen of ÖROK, grade every place by the stops nearby. Each stop gets a category from its kind of service and from how often it runs on weekdays. Around the stop, the classes run from A, the best, to G, and the class drops as the distance to the stop grows. For each address in Villach, we take the class it lies in and count the share of addresses in class A or B. The data gives each address its cadastral community, such as Lind, Auen or St. Martin. The neighbourhoods Lagecheck compares are statistical areas of Statistik Austria, each named after a street inside it.

How we counted
The ÖV-Güteklassen 2025 come from ÖROK, the Austrian Conference on Spatial Planning, and AustriaTech publishes them. The classes rate the weekday service at each stop and measure the walking distance to the stop, so evening and weekend timetables stay out of the count. The address register of the BEV gives every address, and each address counts once, however many flats it has. The building report of each address names its class, the nearest stop and its lines, and the method explains how public transport enters LAGE. Under your priorities, you can give public transport more weight. The neighbourhood finder then ranks the neighbourhoods of Villach by those priorities.
