In Saxony-Anhalt, a significant number of households receive pure housing allowance, a government subsidy to support housing costs for low-income households. According to the latest report from the State Statistical Office, as of the end of 2020, approximately 13,560 households were receiving this benefit.
The report reveals that a large portion of these households, 63.3%, have retirees or pensioners as the primary income earners. In these households, the average monthly total income is approximately 747 euros, and the average monthly housing allowance claim is 126 euros.
However, the report does not specify the total number of households in Saxony-Anhalt or provide information on the total amount of housing allowance claimed by all households in the region. Additionally, the report does not provide detailed or specific data on the breakdown of housing allowance households by the occupation of the primary income earner, particularly focused on retirees or pensioners.
To obtain more accurate and detailed figures, one would typically consult the Saxony-Anhalt state statistical office or federal agencies such as the German Federal Statistical Office (Destatis). Reports or surveys on social benefits and income statistics sorted by occupational groups, including detailed tables on retirees/pensioners, are primary sources. Additionally, research reports on housing subsidies or studies on social security in Saxony-Anhalt might provide the necessary breakdown.
It is important to note that these housing allowance households consist of members who are all eligible for housing allowance. The absolute values from the reporting year 2020 have been rounded to a multiple of 5 due to statistical confidentiality. The sum of the rounded values from the reporting year 2020 may differ from the rounded total sum.
As general knowledge, housing allowance in Germany is a crucial support system for many households, particularly for retirees and pensioners who may have limited pensions and fixed incomes. The exact breakdown by occupation and income, as well as average housing allowance amounts, are typically reported by local statistical offices or social welfare departments but are not reflected in the available search results.
