1 In 4 People In Germany Now Has Migrant Background, Data Shows

  • The Federal Statistical Office reported that in 2024, 25.6 percent of Germany’s population, or 21.2 million people, had a migration background.
  • This increase followed a 4 percent rise from 2023, driven largely by migration since 2015 and changes in Germany’s native-born population size.
  • Among the migrant population, nearly 16.1 million were immigrants themselves, with large recent groups arriving from Syria, Romania, Poland, and Ukraine.
  • From 2022 to 2024, 843,000 immigrants arrived from Ukraine, contributing to a total of nearly 6.5 million post-2015 migrants, with 31 percent seeking asylum and 21 percent family reunification.
  • The growing migrant population affects Germany’s demographics and fuels debate about workforce contributions and integration challenges.
