Bremen, for instance, reports an unemployment rate of 1.5%, which differs from the national average of 4.7%.

Rising cost of living expenses, including increased housing costs, grocery, utility and healthcare expenditures, can induce financial strain on individuals and families, particularly those with limited financial resources.

In Bremen, the cost of living is 12.44% lower than the national average, reflecting a more affordable economic environment that could contribute to a decrease in crime levels.
