St. Anton am Arlberg

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- It’s late season for st Anton but you’ll be totally fine. The surrounding mountains won’t look as picturesque but most of the runs will be open.
- I would add Verbier, St. Anton, Obertauern, La Thuile.
- There are resorts where people will go for off piste on marked routes, ski routes. They're mitigated to a point... St Anton, Ischgl, Verbier, Chamonix all have some of mitigation
- Many more resorts actually have their own railway stations (St Anton, Ski Welt, Kitzbühel, Zell am See, Mayrhofen, Bad Gastein...) have their own railway stations. And those that don't tend to have much better bus links.
- In terms of resorts with quite a lot of such stuff some that come to mind are: * St Anton/Lech/Zurs
Cons
- I did think of St Antony but it's another hour away. So we would have to leave Munich super early to get there to make the most of the first day.
- Runner up: St. Anton for terrain. But you’ll miss out on all the Michelin starred restaurants.
- I was planning to go to St. Anton ski resort, by my girlfriend really hates crowds and it seems that the ski resort will be overcrowded.
- Option B take the 1hr train to St Anton from Innsbruck.
- St. Anton is not great for beginners but it's not like the terrain is all cliff bands. The trails that you would need to ski down to the village of St. Anton at the end of the day is bit of circus for beginners

I love St Anton and the Arlberg ski area.
* Upmarket: Verbier, St. Anton, Ischgl, Val d’Isère
