I've been living in Dübendorf for just over a month now and it is a nice place to live.

As others have said you have easy access to Zürich via a 10-15min train ride.

I do agree the town is a little bit 'quiet' also, maybe because it seems like a lot of older people and retirees live here but it is nice none-the-less.

Also if you are into a bit different sports there is a nice 25m swimming pool near the station, a very big climbing gym near the next station (Milandia), running tracks, soccer fields, bike paths... there's enough to do!

Anyway, enjoy the town!
