Zunehmend ungleiche Mietkostenbelastung

www.bib.bund.de/Publikation/...

• Mietkostenbelastung insbesondere für Personen mit Niedrigeinkommen angestiegen
• Ungleichheit der Mietkostenbelastung bei Zugewanderten stärker angestiegen
• Realeinkommensverluste bei Personen mit Niedrigeinkommen
Die Abbildung zeigt die Entwicklung der Mietkostenbelastung zwischen 1990 und 2020 am obersten und untersten Quintil der Einkommensverteilung. Am oberen Ende der Verteilung blieb die Mietkostenbelastung relativ stabil, am unteren Ende der Verteilung stieg die Belastung an. Bei Zugewanderten mit niedrigen Einkommen war die Steigerung von niedrigem Niveau kommend besonders ausgeprägt.
Great time with my peeps at the BiB-PhD-workshop; inspiring papers and discussions, an insightful panel debate on how to prepare for a productive PostDoc, and the most relevant input on how to assume lead(ership) roles during PhD!😃📈
Thank you @tamilwhy.bsky.social & Lidia Gutu for organizing!

When winter feels the longest, we fortunately organize our own PhD-peer workshop at BiB! The ‘wall of compliments’ – where only pep talk is allowed – was a good balance to useful and critical feedback to my paper 🙏 Thanks @eliashofmann.bsky.social and everyone else! #phdlife #populationgeography

Here's a starter pack for happiness/SWB researchers. It's a pretty small list at this point; I've mainly used profile searches, with limited results.

So, happy to add people by request.

Extremely honored to have received a DGD award for my MT on “The effect of moving distance on income returns in Germany”. Shout-out to my supervisors Prof. Clara Mulder ( @unigroningen.bsky.social) and Prof. Michael Wagner (University of Cologne), and my current colleagues at the BiB!
Really happy about the great feedback I received for my paper on internal migration and subjective well-being at #YoungDemographers conference in Prague! It has been a great experience, grateful to the organising team!
