Nearly 1 in 20 Syrians Now Lives in Islamized Germany

Since the asylum crisis of 2015, the Syrian population in Germany has surged dramatically. According to Statista, Germany now hosts a staggering 972,000 Syrians. This means that almost 1 in 20 Syrians globally now live in Germany, considering Syria’s total population of 22 million. In stark contrast, only 60,000 Syrians were living in Germany in 2013, marking a sixteen-fold increase over a decade.

A Look at Other Migrant Populations

The Afghan community in Germany has also grown significantly. By 2023, the Afghan population reached 419,410, a sixfold increase since 2014. Approximately half of this group, about 197,551 individuals, are on social assistance, primarily asylum seeker benefits. Despite their numbers, Afghans constitute a smaller proportion of Afghanistan’s 41 million population.

Economic and Social Impact

The rapid increase in Syrian and Afghan migrants is coming at a significant cost to Germany. Many of these migrants rely on social benefits, severely straining the country’s social safety net. Recent figures show that a record number of welfare recipients in Germany do not have a German passport.

Crime Concerns

Safety concerns have also escalated with the rising migrant populations. Statistics indicate that Afghans have one of the highest crime rates in Germany. They are five times more likely to engage in criminal activities compared to native Germans, and the likelihood increases to 12.5 times in cases of sexual crimes.

Path to Citizenship

In addition to the growing population, many Syrian and Afghan migrants are on the path to becoming German citizens. A new law, effective this week, permits foreigners to naturalize after just five years of residence, or even three years in some cases. This means a significant number of migrants could soon acquire full German citizenship.

Comparisons with the Netherlands

According to CBS data from last year, there are currently around 144,991 Syrians and tens of thousands of Afghans in the Netherlands. Remarkably, 54 percent of Dutch welfare recipients have a non-Western migration background, despite only 14.4 percent of the Dutch population having such a background. This represents a skewed growth rate, highlighting the challenges faced by the welfare system in accommodating non-Western migrants.
