Taxation in Frauenfeld: best neighborhoods and areas

Taxation reflects total tax load (federal + cantonal + communal) for a married couple with one child (income 70/30, CHF 125,000 gross, tax year 2025). Figures come from the official ESTV calculator. A high score means lower taxes.

On this criterion, the Frauenfeld area performs particularly well. The average score of 4.5/10, computed across 24 communes, sits above the national average (3.5/10). Scores span from 3.8/10 to 6.1/10 across the communes analysed.

The standard deviation of 0.7 signals relative homogeneity; results are comparable from one commune to the next.

Geographic Patterns and Contrasts

With a spread of only 2.3 points between extremes (6.1/10 to 3.8/10), the Frauenfeld communes offer relatively uniform conditions on this criterion.

Top-ranked communes typically benefit from several convergent factors (location, long-standing infrastructure, geographic exposure); the weakest often compound structural disadvantages. The interactive map makes these spatial clusters visible at a glance.

Who Weighs This Criterion Most

Among the four VivaMap profiles, the Retirement profile weights this criterion most heavily (weight 70 out of 100). The other profiles apply the following weights: Young Professional (weight 60), Family (weight 50), Nature (weight 30).

Practically, a high Taxation score carries significant impact on the ranking for the Retirement profile, whereas it matters less for a profile that de-emphasises this criterion. This explains why the same commune can lead one ranking and fall mid-pack in another.

Comparison Across Swiss Agglomerations

Among the 21 major Swiss agglomerations analysed by VivaMap, Frauenfeld sits in the upper half for Taxation: rank 10/21 (ahead of 57% of the agglomerations).

Its immediate neighbours in the ranking are Altdorf (rank 9) and Glarus (rank 11). This context helps calibrate absolute scores: an agglomeration that looks average in isolation can sit well among its peers, and vice versa.
