Based on a survey of citizens of Greater Stuttgart, I examine the existence of a metropolitan citizenship and analyze the awareness of, satisfaction with, and attachment to a city-region in the multitier political structure of Germany. The analysis indicates that the residents know little about the regional planning association but that a considerable number of residents feel attached to the metropolitan level of politics. A majority of the citizens supports the city-regional cooperation and is satisfied with the output dimension of metropolitics. I use logistic regressions to determine the effects of personal resources, cognitive territorial orientations, and contextual factors on attitudinal attachment to the metropolitan level. Education, perceived quality of life, mobility, and attachment to the municipality produce the strongest effects. Therefore, there is evidence of a common metropolitan perspective in this initial insight into citizenship in German city-regions.
