Abstract: The German census 2011 has been a register based census. Deviant from former “Volkszählungen” not all persons and households has been surveyed to discharge respondents and to save costs. Therefore the Census 2011 has used different data sources and different methods of survey. This has opened a wide spectrum of potential analysis. In addition to the population size first results had already been compiled and published in May 2013 before the data processing was completed. For final results additional information had been included. In parts the final results in May 2014 were based on other data sources and other methods of calculation. Boxplots on German municipalities with at least 10,000 inhabitants show the divergences in the results due to different methods of survey and analysis for selected variables.
