Kilchberg
In a direct lakeside location is Kilchberg - the place of origin of the world-famous Lindt chocolate. To this day, Lindt & Sprüngli AG has its headquarters here and is the largest industrial enterprise and employer in the community. The Zurich suburb also shows its chocolate side with its citizen-oriented, infrastructural and family-friendly community services. Likewise, the sports, recreation and leisure facilities in a rural idyll leave nothing to be desired. The Kilchberg village markets and culturally influenced buildings such as the community's landmark - the Kilchberg Reformed Church - are known beyond the region. As an innovative location, Kilchberg comes up with particularly sustainable urban planning and energy balance.
Adliswil
Next to Kilchberg lies the political municipality of Adliswil in the beautiful Sihl Valley between Albis and Zimmerberg - just a few minutes away from the economic center of Zurich, which borders to the north. Adliswil is home to globally active insurance companies, which contribute to the excellent infrastructure. Thus, a large part of the more than 18,000 inhabitants work in the service sector. As a place to live, Adliswil offers plenty of peace and quiet and local recreation. A variety of cultural and leisure activities as well as a lively city center round off the pleasant life here.

The town is home to a competence center of the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW) with more than 1,000 students and numerous jobs in research and development.

Richterswil offer the longest public lake access in the district of Horgen with modern marina, special view from the Samstagerner sun terrace and a beautiful lakeside resort - thus the community has the reputation as one of the most popular recreational areas on the left shore of the lake.
