Location and population

Sahlkamp is in the north of Hanover close to Langenhagen. In addition, Sahlkamp borders on the districts of Isernhagen-Süd , the List , Bothfeld and Vahrenheide . Sahlkamp is predominantly characterized by single-family houses built in the 1950s and 1960s. For young people and children there is a youth center and a district farm where they can have direct contact with animals from rural life. The site of the former branch of the Herschelschule grammar school is now a day care center. By tram line 2 (Alte Heide - Rethen) of Sahlkamp is connected to the city center. Several bus routes also cross the district. In addition, there are high-rise buildings from the 1970s on the streets of Hä meadows and General-Wever-Straße. Sahlkamp has a total of 14,368 inhabitants (2019), of which around 47% have a migration background. Many migrants speak Arabic , Turkish , Polish or Persian .

Development to the social hotspot

The high number of social housing has created a social hotspot here . The proportion of families with a migration background in the district is an above-average 47 percent. The proportion is significantly higher in the prefabricated buildings. Unemployment, crime and child poverty are particularly high in the prefabricated buildings in the south of Sahlkamp. The AFD has a very high share of the vote for West German relations: In the federal election in 2017 , the party got 14.3% of votes. On June 19, 2010, an incident occurred at a street festival: A dance group from the Liberal Jewish Community was pelted with pebbles by a group of children and young people of Arab origin, among others, calling out anti-Semitic slogans . A dancer was injured as a result, so the dance performance was canceled.
