Berlin Births Hit Record Low in 2025, Official Data Show

The data signal a persistent gap with more deaths than births.

Overview

  • The statistics office counted 33,240 births in Berlin in 2025, about five percent fewer than in 2024.
  • This is the lowest total since the resident-registration records began.
  • All districts saw declines, with the steepest drops in Reinickendorf, Pankow and Mitte.
  • Marzahn-Hellersdorf was comparatively less affected.
  • The birth deficit stayed near 4,600, meaning deaths again topped births and signaling pressures for local planning.
