Population / Population development
Source: Zuständigkeitsfinder Schleswig-Holstein (Linie6Plus)
Service Description
The highest state authorities and the Northern Statistics Office provide information on population/population trends.
Insights into the population structure and future population trends are an important planning basis for the state (federal, state and local), but also for the private sector.
The serious demographic changes of the coming decades will have a noticeable impact on all areas of life. They require early action and needs-based planning.
It is the task of the federal state to set the right course for this in its own areas of responsibility and to support local authorities and other public and private planning bodies in this through legal requirements, but also by providing information and advice as well as programs and projects.
