NUTS-3 DE21A · Germany
Erding
Erding generates €5.5bn of GDP across 140.1k residents. Its Opportunity Index of 58.4/100 is mid-table of EU regions, led by livability and market access. Its economy has grown +5.0%/yr over five years and accelerating, with the employment rate up 2.2pp. On quality of life it ranks strongest for jobs (92.5th EU percentile) and weakest for safety (58.3th).
Long-run trajectory · EU percentile of real GDP per head, 1995–2024
Mid-field stable52 → 63 EU percentile since 1995 (+11 ranks)
Yearly EU-wide percentile of real GDP per head (ARDECO regional accounts, constant 2020 prices, derived over population). 50 = the EU median that year; percentiles are scale-free, so decades are directly comparable. See the backtest for what long-run prosperity ranks do — and don't — anticipate.
