Structural data

Around 72,000 people live in the constituency, 52,000 of whom are eligible to vote. Thus, of all 17 constituencies, the Süderelbe has the fewest residents and the fewest eligible voters. The population density in the constituency is 783 inhabitants / km² and is therefore well below the Hamburg average of 2294 inhabitants / km². In addition to the constituency of Bergedorf, Süderelbe has the lowest population density in Hamburg. The reason for this is the geographical peripheral location with a high proportion of agricultural land, natural spaces, local recreation areas and areas that are part of the Port of Hamburg .

When looking at the social structure, the constituency stands out due to its high proportion of families. Children live in 24.0 percent of households (Hamburg 17.8%), the number of people per household (2.2) is Hamburg's highest rate with Alstertal-Walddörfer. In terms of education figures, however, it is noticeable that the proportion of schoolchildren who attend a grammar school is 36.2%, well below the Hamburg average (45.5%). Those under 18 years of age make up 18.9% of the total population (Hamburg 15.6%), making the constituency the youngest in a demographic comparison. The proportion of people over 65 is 21.0% (Hamburg 19.1%). At 11.8%, the proportion of foreigners is below the average of 13.6%.

The proportion of employees subject to social security contributions in 2009 was 49.5%, slightly below the Hamburg average of 50.6%. The unemployment rate was 7.1% in September 2010 and was thus above the rate of 6.1% in the whole of Hamburg. The proportion of younger unemployed (15-25 years) was 3.6% in September 2010 (Hamburg 3.4%). The share of unemployed people who receive benefits under the Social Security Code II (Hartz IV) was 5.3% of the population in September 2010, and an average of 3.7% in Hamburg. Of the total population of the constituency, one in seven received Hartz IV benefits (13.9%) in March 2010, compared to an average of 11.6% in Hamburg.

Citizenship elections 1966–2015

Up to and including 2004, the state elections were pure list elections without constituencies. The summarized election results of the districts in the constituency including the eastern areas of Eißendorf and Heimfeld, which are not part of the constituency, are therefore presented in the period from 1966 to 2004 (6th – 18th electoral period). For the years from 2008 onwards, the results of the state list, which is decisive for the majority in the citizenship, are given. Only those parties are listed that were able to collect more than five percent of the valid votes cast in at least one district of the constituency in the period shown. In total, the result of an election can therefore be less than 100%. All results are given in percent.
