Bielefeld, Northrhine-Westphalia
\n330,000 inhabitants
\nHas a low purchasing power – only 104% of German average, quite small for a West German city and one of the cities with the highest millionaire densities.
\nUnemployment is above West German average. The city is in transition from an industrial to a services city.
\nIt is the safest city with >100k population in Germany.
\nMost of the historical buildings and houses got lost during WWII. Rebuilt in favour of traffic and industry. This is the main reason for it’s ugliness.
\nThe light metro system is 35km of street level and tunnel rails.<\/p>\n
