    1 As of June 30, 2018

    Since the formation of the district in 2011, the number of residents has decreased by more than 6,700 or around 2.5% by June 30, 2018. The offices of Demmin-Land (−8.4%), Friedland (−7.5%) and Woldegk (−7.0%) as well as the non-governmental municipality of the Hanseatic City of Demmin (−7.7%) were particularly hard hit. The offices of Stargarder Land (+1.0%) and Seenlandschaft Waren (+0.2%) experienced a slightly positive development . At the district level, the negative natural population movement, i.e. H. the surplus of deaths over live births, of which only moderate migration gains of a total of approx. +950 people over the period 2011 to 2017 cannot be compensated.

    history

    In July 2010, the state parliament of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania passed a "district structure law" to reorganize the districts and independent cities as part of a district reform , which provided for the restructuring of the state into six districts and two independent cities. Under the planning name of the Mecklenburgische Seenplatte district , the previously independent city of Neubrandenburg, the Müritz district , the Mecklenburg-Strelitz district and the city of Dargun , the Hanseatic city of Demmin and the offices of Demmin-Land , Malchin am Kummerower See , Stavenhagen and Treptower Tollensewinkel from the District Demmin a new district emerges. The city of Neubrandenburg was designated as the seat of the district administration. After a lawsuit by the districts of Müritz, Ludwigslust, Ostvorpommern, Rügen and Uecker-Randow as well as the two independent cities Wismar and Greifswald against the district reform failed before the state constitutional court in Greifswald , the previously existing districts were dissolved and the new ones at the end of September 3, 2011 Counties formed.

    On September 4, 2011, the day the district reform came into force and at the same time as the state elections , the voters voted on the new district council and the district name. The choices were the district of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania , proposed by the district of Demmin, and the district of Mecklenburg Lake District , proposed by the districts of Müritz, Mecklenburg-Strelitz and the city of Neubrandenburg. The latter proposal was finally able to prevail with 83.8 percent of the valid votes cast.
