Greiz
Export region data (CSV)Greiz generates €2.7bn of GDP across 93.7k residents. Its Opportunity Index of 35.9/100 sits in the lower tier of EU regions, led by livability and market access. Its economy has grown +2.4%/yr over five years and cooling, with the employment rate up 0.8pp. On quality of life it ranks strongest for digital connectivity (92th EU percentile) and weakest for health (25.5th).
