The municipality, in figures

The municipality

Bremen, Stadt is a large municipality measuring 34 by 65 kilometres, spread over 2 separate pieces. With 577.026 inhabitants it is densely populated (1.771 per square kilometre). It has a coastline, and that matters: the strip of maritime-terrestrial public domain is governed by its own rule, different from that of the rest of the municipality. Within its boundaries there are 27 protected areas, including Nebenarme der Weser mit Strohauser Plate und Juliusplate. There, the rules on permitted uses are set by each area's own plan. It borders 40 municipalities, and the answer may change on crossing any of those lines.
