Key Findings of the Report:

They live in more difficult and poorer conditions than Germans, with more precarious rental contracts .
They are frequently exposed to discrimination in their neighborhoods .
Nearly 50% of Muslims and Black people describe their chances of obtaining adequate housing as "low."
Official Confirmations:
Tay John Kim , the coordinator of the team that prepared the report, emphasized that housing is a "basic human need," stating: "It provides protection, stability, and social integration. However, housing in Germany is not only insufficient but also distributed unequally."
The Nature of the Problem:
The report indicated that housing inequalities represent a general problem, not just individual experiences , and that they are influenced by economic conditions and racial affiliations , reflecting a structural challenge in society.
