Microcensus

In the period from January to December, a total of 1% of Germany's population in private households and collective living quarters will be selected using random sampling and the residents surveyed. The results of the microcensus provide the general public, policy-makers and the scientific community with a wide range of information on life in Germany. They serve as an important basis for policy decisions that affect the lives of many people.

The tourism industry is a cross-cutting sector which is not represented in its entirety in any set of official statistics. What do tourists in Germany spend their money on? How much greenhouse gas is produced by tourism? How many people are employed in the tourism industry? An article in the current issue (3/2025) of our scientific WISTA journal presents the tourism satellite account for the economy and environment (TSA-EE). This satellite account describes the significance of tourism in Germany and enables a comparison with other economic sectors.
