More than 2,360 apartments were evicted in Saxony last year. This is an increase of around 90 compared to 2023. The figures are based on statistics published by the Ministry of Justice in response to a question from the Left Party in the Bundestag and made available to the German Press Agency in Berlin. The statistics cover evictions from apartments and other premises.
In absolute figures, only North Rhine-Westphalia (10,118), Bavaria (2,979) and Lower Saxony (2,639) recorded more evictions. In relation to the number of inhabitants, Bremen (7.17), Saxony-Anhalt (6.16) and Berlin (6.15) lead the negative ranking of the federal states. Saxony is in fifth place with 5.86 evictions per 10,000 inhabitants.
Only in Brandenburg, Bremen, Hesse and Thuringia were the figures down slightly compared to 2023. A total of 32,000 apartments were evicted in Germany.
