According to the poverty report of the Paritätischer Wohlfahrtsverband, poverty rose to a new record level of 16.1 percent in 2020, the first year of the current economic crisis.

In 2006, it was 14 percent and in 2019 15.9 percent.

There is also a significant difference between the various federal states of the FRG.
