Tirschenreuth
Tirschenreuth generates €3.8bn of GDP across 72.2k residents. Its Opportunity Index of 49.8/100 is mid-table of EU regions, led by livability and market access. Its economy has grown +6.9%/yr over five years and accelerating, with the employment rate up 1.6pp. On quality of life it ranks strongest for digital connectivity (99th EU percentile) and weakest for health (35.5th).
Long-run trajectory · EU percentile of real GDP per head, 1995–2024
Long-run riser54 → 84 EU percentile since 1995 (+30 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.
