Statistics: Building and housing

Notes:
The table refers to the data as at December 31 and the current territorial status.
Since the 2011 building and housing census, the term "dwelling" has been defined differently than was previously the case. A kitchen or a room with cooking facilities is now no longer a mandatory part of a dwelling, unlike previously, where these dwellings were not counted as dwellings but only as "other housing units" (particularly in halls of residence). This therefore also includes halls of residence and their apartments.
Rooms are defined as living rooms and bedrooms with an area of 6 m² or more as well as all kitchens and any commercially used rooms in the dwelling.
When calculating the living space in m² per person, all persons with a main or secondary residence in Erlangen and their apartments are included. Exception: Persons in halls of residence and their apartments there (or the former "other residential units") are not taken into account.

Notes:

• Data as at 31.12. in each case.
• The City of Erlangen has purchased the occupancy rights to a total of 598 privately financed apartments from the portfolio of GEWOBAU mbH of the City of Erlangen for 20 years, which are not included in the total of social housing. In the contractual agreement, the city set Gewobau a rental price per m² that is roughly in line with the social housing level. Although these "apartments with occupancy rights" are also allocated exclusively with a certificate of eligibility for housing, these apartments are NOT social housing, as they are no longer subject to social rent control under the Housing Assistance Act.
• Some of the "available apartments" for the prevention of homelessness are social housing, but they are not included in the reported stock as they are not available for general use.
