In 2024, ***** households in Germany had one child. There were ***** households which had two children. Based on this statistic, it is somewhat rare, in comparison, to see German households with three or more children. Aging population in Germany Germany’s population is aging, a fact regularly confirmed by statistical research and covered extensively in the media. When looking at age structure in the country, the 65+ age group is slowly but steadily growing year after year. At the same time, there are positive trends to be hopeful about, such as the increasing number of births in recent years. Rising number of single households Other EU countries had higher crude birth rates than Germany, with Montenegro, Iceland and Moldova in the lead as of 2024. Ultimately, the development of the number of households with children is connected to various reasons. One-person or single households are on the rise in Germany, in particular among the urban population. If viewed from the perspective of whether it’s a question of having children or not, household expansion in that sense might be delayed or postponed due to financial or health-related considerations, as well as concerns about childcare options and child benefits. Depending on future developments in corresponding government legislation, there may be changes in the statistical figures displayed here.
The number of one-person households in Germany has been increasing in the last decade, while the opposite was true for three-person homes. In 2024, around ** million German households had one occupant, while roughly **** million households had three people living in them. Aging population These trends may be rooted in various reasons, such as population developments, aging, urbanization, individual lifestyles, flexible living arrangements. When looking at the growing number of one-person households, depending on the age group, this increase may be due to being single, for example, as well as an older person living alone. The ************* of the German population was aged 40 to 59 years, followed by those aged 65 and older. In terms of housing situations, **** were renting. Residential building construction in Germany struggled somewhat in recent years. Decreasing household member numbers It is not just in Germany that households are decreasing in size. A similar trend has been seen in the United States. Household size is often very dependent on the financial status of individuals. Those with more money will often opt to live alone, whilst those on a lower income may have no choice but to have roommates or to continue living with their family.

In 2024, there were ******* German households with a household net income of under 500 euros per month. ***** households had a monthly income of 5,000 euros and more. Disposable net income While at first glance the aforementioned monthly income may seem manageable, based on general German standards of living, it is worth noting that flexibility and expenditure depends on the number of people living in a household, or rather the number of earners in relation to that number. In the case of employed population members, what remains as disposable net income is influenced by various regular payments made by households after the already taxed salary arrives. These payments include, but are not limited to, rent, different types of insurance, repaying loans, fees for internet and mobile phone services. Food and housing When looking at private household spending in Germany, consistent patterns emerge. Housing, water, electricity, gas and other fuel made up the largest share and will increase even further in the coming months, followed by food, beverages, and tobacco.

The lack of a recent summarizing description of population density in Germany that contains detailed information of pre-industrial times motivated the author of this study to undertake an analysis of population history of Northern Germany between 1740 and 1840. The goal of the study is to analyze the development of population regarding different aspects of population history and historical demographics. The author tries to connect geographic data with family data and then he relates it with economic, political and cultural development. The main part of the study ‘population dynamics’ gives an overview over demographic developments in a century characterized by demographic changes. Insights in the general changes in population size, the phases of Northern German population development and in relevant components for increases in population (e.g. decrease in mortality) are given. Finally the population determinants are developed, first in a concrete regional historic context of some areas (Marsch, nordwestliches Binnenland, Münsterland, Ostwestfalen, Ostelbien) and then more general external factors are included in the analysis. The generative structure of pre-industrial population, the industrial development, seasonal work and colonization are covered. There is an extra chapter on the development of urban population which includes the factors: urbanization, decrease in mortality, first signs of birth controls and migration. These regional considerations are opposed to an investigation of the general framework of demographical changes. In this context also grain prices and prevention from smallpox are taken into account.
