SocietyDemographic change: Germany's population is shrinking, but not everywhere
A study by the Berlin Institute for Population and Development and the Wüstenrot Foundation projects Germany's population will fall from 83.5 million in 2025 to about 81.8 million by 2045, with the working-age population also shrinking. The trend varies by region: Berlin and several major cities are expected to grow, while some western cities and sparsely populated areas may lose residents.
