UNVERIFIED

While the figures you provided align with the general demographic trends in Austria, the specific percentages cannot be fully confirmed by the available sources. For January 2025, data shows that 20.2% of the population were foreign citizens 9, and as of 2024, about 27.8% had a migration background 7. Since the 'foreign-born' population typically falls between these two categories, your figure of 22.5% is very plausible, but it isn't explicitly stated in the records provided 39. Additionally, while we know the population surpassed 8 million in 2000 2, the specific 8.7% figure for 2001 is not mentioned in these documents. We do know that migration has been the primary driver of growth, with the proportion of people with a migration background rising steadily from 21.4% in 2015 3. For a local comparison, the city of Vienna reported that 40.9% of its residents were born abroad by early 2025 6.
