Many of the criminals who are terrorizing Germany today are migrants, in spite of the fact that only about 15 percent of the German population is of foreign origin. What is more, many of these criminals are repeat offenders, such as the West African migrant who recently committed more than 50 crimes over the course of only 30 days before finally being temporarily put behind bars in the town of Lüneburg last Sunday. Even more surprising is that a considerable number of these delinquents are adolescents and children. This is what the hard numbers uncovered in research recently conducted by the German newspaper BILD have revealed.

— Remix News & Views (@RMXnews) January 29, 2025According to the BILD report, there are currently 10,362 repeat offenders known to the authorities who are causing problems across Germany. The state of Hesse, which includes the city of Frankfurt, has the largest share of such incessant troublemakers: 2,112. While about half of them are German citizens, the rest are foreigners, with the largest number being of Algerian (145) and Moroccan (125) origin. Ten of them are children.
Hesse is far from alone in this trend, however. North Rhine-Westphalia police records show 1,703 repeat criminals, some of whom are as young as 8 years old, and some of whom commit five or more crimes per year. Some 874 of this number are foreigners, including 110 Syrians and 66 Moroccans, and 198 of these are dual citizens. We know this because North Rhine-Westphalia records dual citizens separately; other German states count them as German citizens, which suggests that the actual proportion of foreign repeat offenders elsewhere may be considerably higher than the numbers show.
Police records for other German states and cities show the following:
Schleswig-Holstein: 794 repeat offenders; 68% are German citizens, 359 are under 21 years old, and 13 are children
Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania: 421 repeat offenders, 64 of whom are children or adolescents
Rhineland-Palatinate: 159 repeat offenders; 64 are non-Germans
Saxony: 1,421 non-German suspected criminals; 116 are between 14 and 18 years old, 14 are under 14
Bavaria: 700 repeat offenders are under the age of 20
Bremen: 64 repeat offenders
Hamburg: 224 repeat offenders; 82 are under 18 years of age and 14 are under 14, while 85 are foreigners
Figures for 2024 in Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, and Thuringia are still unavailable, while Brandenburg and Saarland did not return requests for their data. Baden-Württemberg refused to release its figures in order to protect “personal rights.”
The statistics that were made available are more than adequate to show that crimes perpetrated by migrants are a serious, widespread, and disproportionate problem in Germany. This correlates with other data, such as a recent report by the news outlet NIUS which revealed that migrants account for 59 percent of all reported crimes of a sexual nature perpetrated at German train stations.
When it comes to violent crime in general, non-German suspects committed 46 percent of all reported incidents in 2023 – an increase from only 28 percent in 2013.
Moreover, a report from the German Federal Criminal Police Office recently showed that gangs of foreign criminals are costing German taxpayers billions of euros in damages. Such gangs caused €2.7 billion in damage in 2023 alone, which is more than double that of the previous year and three times more than the average over the previous 10 years.
