We know where the best spots would be geologically, but the Bavarians happen to live there. That's why the waste is stored in leaky former salt mines in Northern Germany, in rusty barrels. The Bavarians are big proponents of nuclear energy, but there's no way they want that shit buried in their glorious territory.
