Short Answer |
Yes. The divergences between the migrant and majority population might be a result of the fact that the area of housing holds a significant high degree of discrimination. In particular, the most significant differences exist between the group of persons with a Turkish migration background and the majority population. |

Qualitative Info |
In general, persons with a migration background usually have less square metres for their disposal (2011: about 8m² less); in owner-occupied housing as well as in rented flats. Especially persons with a Turkish migration background show a high number of persons per household compared to the majority population as well as compared to other households with a migration background.
It can be observed that persons with a migration background usually live in less preferred neighbourhoods than persons without a migrant background. Furthermore, a much higher percentage of persons with a migrant background live in houses with more then three living quarters or even twelve living quarters than persons without a migrant background, who more often live in one- or two-family houses.
Other indicators for quality include sanitary installations, heating systems and balcony or garden. With exception of access to a garden, no major differences could be observed between migrant and non-migrant groups. Lastly, quality in housing is more expensive for persons with migration background (6,89 €/m² in 2011) than for persons without a migration background (6,59€/m² in 2011).
