Abstract

Die Hochwasserkatastrophe vor 20 Jahren hat massive Schäden in zahlreichen Gemeinden Sachsens verursacht. Eine der Lehren aus dem damaligen Schock war, dass mehr Resilienz nötig ist. Unsere Untersuchung der Bevölkerungsdaten zeigt jedoch, dass gerade diejenigen Gemeinden, die von der Flut betroffen waren, jährlich eine um etwa einen viertel Prozentpunkt bessere Bevölkerungsentwicklung hatten als nichtbetroffene Gemeinden. Verbesserter Hochwasserschutz, aber möglicherweise auch die Fluthilfen lassen besonders gefährdete Regionen als Wohnorte immer noch attraktiv erscheinen.
