Where do Germans want to live in the future? In a metropolis, in a city, or perhaps in the countryside? One thing is certain: regardless of gender or income, there is a desire to escape the city. Roughly one in four Germans would like to live in the countryside, and almost as many in a small town or a city with fewer than 100,000 inhabitants. In contrast, not even one in ten is enthusiastic about living in a metropolis. However, there are significant regional differences: almost twice as many East Germans as West Germans (151 to 81) are interested in living in a city with more than 500,000 inhabitants.<\/p>\n

Generally speaking, most citizens are only partially willing to relocate. For example, 84 percent of rural residents want to continue living far from the city, and less than 1 percent can imagine living in a large city or metropolis. Similarly, two-thirds of residents of small and medium-sized towns want to grow old in a similarly sized neighborhood. And those who are considering a move tend to prefer the countryside to the city. Only residents of large cities show a slightly higher willingness to relocate, but even then, the majority do not want to change their location.<\/p>\n

Outlook<\/h2>\n

In Germany, there are approximately 230 inhabitants per square kilometer. A good three-quarters live in cities and metropolitan areas, while only 15 percent live in municipalities with fewer than 5,000 inhabitants. Almost all forecasts predict a further increase in rural depopulation, and massive migration is forecast, particularly from structurally weak regions in the east.<\/p>\n

However, these predictions do not necessarily reflect the needs of the population. A growing number of citizens can imagine a future life outside of major cities. As a first step, the commuter belts around the cities are benefiting from this trend. Their popularity has increased by around 50 percent compared to the last ten years.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
