Homelessness in Germany is a significant social issue, one that is estimated to affect around 678,000 people.[1] This figure includes about 372,000 people that are accommodated (in refugee shelters, etc.) by public services, e.g. by the municipalities.[2] Since 2014, there has been a 150% increase in the homeless population within the country.[3] Reportedly, around 22,000 of the homeless population are children.[1][citation needed]
In addition, the country has yet to publish statistics on homelessness at a Federal Level[4] despite it being an ongoing and widespread matter.
