Stendal
Export region data (CSV)Stendal generates €4.0bn of GDP across 106.5k residents. Its Opportunity Index of 42.5/100 is mid-table of EU regions, led by market access and livability. Its economy has grown +6.1%/yr over five years and accelerating, with the employment rate down 0.2pp. On quality of life it ranks strongest for digital connectivity (85th EU percentile) and weakest for health (18th).
