Redistricting Germany

[Lewis Trondheim the Amazing Bouncing Ferret]

Currently drawing single-member constituencies of 90,000 to 110,000 residents (of all nationalities) in Germany.
As per the usual, I'm not drawing maps, but I will supply links.

So far done:

Schleswig-Holstein

Clickable map of Schleswig-Holstein districts and municipalities

District entitlements & pairings:
City of Flensburg & Schleswig-Flensburg - 3
Nordfriesland & Dithmarschen - 3
Rendsburg-Eckernförde & City of Kiel - 5
Plön & City of Neumünster - 2
Steinburg & Segeberg - 4
Pinneberg - 3
Ostholstein - 2
City of Lübeck - 2
Stormarn & Herzogtum Lauenburg - 4
sum 28

One thing that's immediately apparent is that Schleswig-Holstein has way too many municipalities, some of them ridiculously small. That's because (like most states actually) it maintains another tier between district and municipality, here called the Amt.
Clicking municipalities on the abovelinked map gets you the Amt they belong to, although it's a bit unfortunate they aren't mapped directly. The word "city" used here only for a district-level city. "Town" used for a small city or a municipality outside the Amt system.

Flensburg app. 98k City of Flensburg and town of Harrislee
Flensburg rural - Kappeln app. 91k
the former Flensburg rural district, minus Harrislee, plus town of Kappeln and Kappeln rural Amt
Schleswig app. 98k
the former Schleswig district minus town of Kappeln and Kappeln rural Amt. Anything south of and including a line of Ekenis - Dollrottfeld - Scheggerott - Rügge - Mohrkirch - Rüde - Satrup - Havetoftloit - Havetoft - Klappholz - Stolk - Bollingstedt - Silberstedt - Treia.

That I am aware where the historical boundary was is due entirely to the fact that for some reason, municipalities in my other source for municipal populations (official government link that - pdf warning) were listed by them and only then alphabetically. Sadly the same wasn't also true for other districts.

Niebüll - North Frisian Islands ca.95k
portion of Nordfriesland not in Husum etc
Husum - Eider River ca. 103k
town of Husum, Ämter of Nordstrand, Hattstedt, Viöl and south of Nordfriesland, Ämter Büsum, Weselburen, Lunden, Weddingstedt, Hennstedt (so right to Heide town limits) of Dithmarschen

Not wholly content with any of these constituency names.

towns of Rendsburg, Büdelsdorf, Schacht-Audorf, Westerrönfeld, Hohenwestedt, Ämter of Osterrönfeld, Fockbek, Hohn, Jevenstedt, Hanerau-Hademarschen, Hohenwestedt rural and Aukrug. Would be 100k without expendable Aukrug but snaky ugly
Eckernförde ca. 104k
would then be too large, and sadly Aukrug doesn't border my Kiel constituencies, and no more northerly Amt could be wholly put with Kiel without splitting Eckernförde in two.
towns of Eckernförde and Nortorf, Ämter of Schwansen, Windeby, Hütten, Dänischer Wohld, Wittensee, Achterwehr, Nortorf rural
Kiel Central ca.95k
Kiel boroughs of Mitte, Ravensberg/Brunswik/Düsternbrook, Schreventeich/Hasseldieksdamm, Hassee/Vieburg and Russee/Hammer

Stormarn North ca. 101k
towns of Bad Oldesloe, Bargteheide, Tangstedt, Ammersbek, Ämter of Nordstormarn, Bad Oldesloe rural, Bargteheide rural, municipality of Hoisdorf of Siek Amt (to get the neighboring district under 110)

Hamburg

Map of Boroughs and Stadtteile (Mitte - red, Altona - purple, Eimsbüttel - blue, Nord - yellow, Wandsbek - grey, Bergedorf - green, Harburg - orange)

Altona & Eimsbüttel - 5
Nord - 3
Harburg - 2
Mitte, Bergedorf, and Eilbek - 4
Wandsbek remainder - 4

Okay, I tried not to split Stadtteile, and have some constituencies that I'm sure would provoke local outrage (and I don't know that much about Hamburg outside the St Georg to Altona Altstadt punk belt )... and I still was unable to prevent splitting Stadtteile in two cases.
But here goes...

Altona ca. 104k
Altona Altstadt, Altona Nord, Ottensen, Othmarschen, Nienstedten
Blankenese - Lurup ca. 106k
Lurup, Osdorf, and points west
Lokstedt - Bahrenfeld ca. 99k
Bahrenfeld and Groß Flottbek; Lokstedt, Stellingen, and Hoheluft West. This is I think utterly absurd.
Eimsbüttel ca. 91k
Eimsbüttel, Harvestehude, Rotherbaum
Niendorf - Schrelsen - Eidelstedt ca. 98k
Exactly as advertised

Winterhude ca.96k
Winterhude, Alsterdorf, Eppendorf, Hoheluft Ost
Barmbek ca.96k
Barmbek Süd, Dulsberg, Uhlenhorst, Hohenfelde, and half of Barmbek Nord
Alstertal ca. 95k
Langenhorn, Fuhlsbüttel, Groß Borstel, Ohlsdorf, and half of Barmbek Nord

Harburg ca. 101k
South of Wilhelmsburg as far west as Heimfeld
Wilhelmsburg - Süderelbe ca. 100k
remainder of borough

Wandsbek ca. 92k
Wandsbek, Marienthal, Tonndorf, Jenfeld, 30% of Framsen-Berne
Rahlstedt ca. 96k
Rahlstedt, 30% of Farmsen-Berne
Bramfeld ca. 94k
Bramfeld, Steilshoop, Wellingsbüttel, 40% of Farmsen-Berne
Walddörfer ca. 103k
remainder of borough

Hamburg Central ca.95k
Mitte as far east as Rothenburgsort
Hamm - Horn - Eilbek ca.95k
Exactly as advertised
Billstedt ca.92k

Bergedorf ca. 98k

Bremen
Keeping the state's boundary intact means having a district largely in Bremen but partly in Bremerhaven. Plus of course a Bremerhaven district and five Bremen districts.
Thing is, since Bremen city is 548k, not doing that means drawing five districts in the city while doing it means basically drawing six.
You know what, I'll do Lower Saxony first, and do Bremen when I get to western Lower Saxony.

I'll need this link.

[Lewis Trondheim the Amazing Bouncing Ferret]

Provisional pairings for Lower Saxony - last bit I'm doing before Christmas.
Gifhorn & City of Wolfsburg - 3
Helmstedt - 1
Northeim & Göttingen - 4
City of Braunschweig, Wolfenbüttel, Goslar, Osterode - 6
City of Salzgitter - 1
Peine, Hildesheim - 4
Hameln, Holzminden - 2
Region Hannover - 11
Schaumburg, Nienburg - 3
Diepholz - 2
Uelzen - 1
Lüchow-Dannenberg, Lüneburg, Harburg - 5
Celle - 2
Stade - 2
Cuxhaven - 2
Soltau-Fallingbostel, Rotenburg - 3
Osterholz, Verden, City of Bremen - 8. That's right, forget what I wrote above.
City of Emden, Aurich, Wittmund - 3
City of Wilhelmshaven, Friesland - 2
Wesermarsch - 1
City of Delmenhorst, Oldenburg rural - 2
Cloppenburg, Vechta - 3
City of Osnabrück, Osnabrück rural - 5
Grafschaft Bentheim, Emsland, Leer - 6
City of Oldenburg, Ammerland - 3

With Bremerhaven's surplus going into either the Wesermarsch or one of the Cuxhaven districts.

[Demented Voter]

City of Bremen - 8. That's right, forget what I wrote above.

Would they like that or not?

[Lewis Trondheim the Amazing Bouncing Ferret]

City of Bremen - 8. That's right, forget what I wrote above.

Would they like that or not?

Eh, it'll basically be linking inner suburbs within the city limits with directly neighboring outer suburbs. Probably not all that problematic although people will want an explanation why the numbers demand that etc. Also depends on how far out the district would go; if it goes way beyond the conurbation obviously that'd be more problematic. I'm sort of assuming a UK-style awareness of constituency boundaries here of course... The Peine-Hildesheim pairing wouldn't be popular either.

Clickable map of Lower Saxony Districts and SGs

Gifhorn ca. 102k
Gifhorn town, Isenbüttel, Papenteich, Meinersen SGs (Samtgemeinden, the local equivalent to Schleswig-Holstein's Ämter, but apparently rather stronger with the member municipalities equivalently weaker, and the format the state statistics office prefers. Can't link to all too well since it's a generated table and the link'd go dead soon anyways). Basically the southwest corner of the district.
Wolfsburg
Wittingen - Wolfsburg North ca.97k each, with Wolfsburg entirely within the city of 120k and the other constituency taking in the remainder of the city and of Gifhorn district. Wolfsburg has quarters, which are even further united into 11 council areas, but I'll be darned if I find any statistical information on them on the city's website beyond the councils' political composition - that I could find.

Helmstedt ca.97k
Entire district

Salzgitter ca. 107k
Entire city

Braunschweig West ca. 103k
Lehndorf - Watenbüttel, Weststadt, Westliches Ringgebiet, Innenstadt, Viewegs Garten - Bebelhof (and thus really something of a Braunschweig Central. linkie)
Braunschweig East ca. 96k
Parts northeast
Wolfenbüttel - Braunschweig South ca. 100k
Town of Wolfenbüttel (55%), remainder of city (45%)
Bad Harzburg - Cremlingen ca. 94k
Vienenburg, Bad Harzburg towns of Goslar district, all of Wolfenbüttel district except Wolfenbüttel town and Baddeckenstedt SG
Goslar ca. 102k
Baddeckenstedt SG of Wolfenbüttel district (ie the bit west of Salzgitter), Goslar, Lutter am Barenberge, Liebenburg, Langelsheim, Seesen towns of Goslar district. Well and the unmarked bit, which is uninhabited and directly under the district.
Osterode ca. 106k
Osterode district, Braunlage, Sankt Andreasberg towns and Oberharz SG  (only one in Goslar district, marked Clausthal-Zellerfeld on map for its council seat) of Goslar district

Göttingen ca.99k
Town of Göttingen except for Geismar, Herbershausen, Nikolausberg and Roringen (and the Göttinger Wald) linkie
Duderstadt - Göttingen Suburban ca. 100k
Towns and SGs from Friedland and Bovenden on eastwards, remainder of Göttingen
Hann. Münden - Uslar ca.100k
Remainder of Göttingen district, Uslar, Bodenfelde, Dassel, Hardegsen of Northeim district

Remainder of Northeim district

Peine ca. 102k
Peine district except Lahstedt, Ilsede, Hohenhameln
Sarstedt ca.108k
Lahstedt, Ilsede and Hohenhameln of Peine district, Sarstedt, Giesen, Algermissen, Harsum, Schellerden, Söhlde and Holle of Hildesheim district
If I can think of a good geographical name, I'll put it in.
Hildesheim ca. 110k
Hildesheim and Diekholzen (110,050. Hildesheim would be just fine without Diekholzen, actually, but one of the other districts would then exceed the limit by more.)
Alfeld ca. 105k
Southwestern remainder of district

I am not sure what I was smoking when I claimed Hameln-Pyrmont plus Holzminden could be paired. Maybe I momentarily allowed 20% variation instead of 10%.
New proposal - Holzminden, Hameln-Pyrmont, Schaumburg - 4
Region Hannover, Nienburg - 12

Holzminden - Pyrmont ca.99k
Holzminden district, Bad Pyrmont town
Hameln ca. 100k
Hameln, Aerzen, Emmerthal, Coppenbrügge, Salzhemmendorf
Rinteln - Hessisch Oldendorf* ca.105k
Bad Münder, Hessisch Oldendorf of Hameln-Pyrmont district, Rinteln, Auetal, Rodenberg, Nenndorf of Schaumburg district
*would be the largest places, and the ones I've heard of, but they're both way over in the western part of the constituency, and it's not as if the eastern part is empty. Hmm.
Stadthagen - Bückeburg ca.99k
Remainder of Schaumburg district

Nienburg ca.106k
Nienburg district except Rehburg-Loccum and Landesbergen
Wunstorf - Neustadt am Rübenberge ca.107k
advertised places of Region Hannover, abovementioned two Nienburg district places
Langenhagen - Wedemark - Isernhagen ca.103k
as advertised
Garbsen - Seelze ca.96k
as advertised
Region Hannover South ca.104k
Barsinghausen, Geerden, Wennigsen, Springe, Pattensen
Laatzen ca.104k
Ronnenberg, Hemmingen, Laatzen, Sehnde
Lehrte - Burgdorf ca.114k
Lehrte, Uetze, Burgdorf and Burgwedel. Well, except that I'd probably shift some Burgwedel neighborhood into the western neighbor district to make up numbers.

City of Hanover district and neighborhood map, in pdf City Population here is 9k below federal sources... these sort of discrepancies are surprisingly common, and I'd trust the cities (whose counts are usually lower) more than the feds. I'm nonetheless using fed/state no.s (these seem to identical. In the states I've done so far anyways.), so these figures, as also Kiel's and Braunschweig's before, are rounded up as if the difference was spread equally over the city.
Hanover Central ca.100k
Districts 01 and 02 (yes, they have names too. They can be found at the link.)
Hanover NW ca. 98k
Districts 11, 12, and 13
Hanover SW ca. 104k
Districts 09, 10, neighborhoods 29, 31 (of district 08)
Hanover SE ca.104k
Districts 06, 07, neighborhoods 05, 06, 30, 32 (of district 08), 26, 27 (of district 04)
Hanover NE ca. 108k
Districts 03, 05, neighborhhod 25 (of district 04)

Diepholz ca.106k
Diepholz district except..
Syke ca. 109k
Stuhr, Weyhe, Syke, Bruchhausen-Vilsen, Siedenburg (only legal combination, unless there's one attainable by splitting the three Bremen suburbs). While smaller than Stuhr and Weyhe, Syke is an old town.

Uelzen - 1
Lüchow-Dannenberg, Lüneburg, Harburg - 5
Celle - 2
Stade - 2
Cuxhaven - 2

City of Delmenhorst, Oldenburg rural - 2
Cloppenburg, Vechta - 3
City of Osnabrück, Osnabrück rural - 5
Grafschaft Bentheim, Emsland, Leer - 6
City of Oldenburg, Ammerland - 3

With Bremerhaven's surplus going into either the Wesermarsch or one of the Cuxhaven districts.

I've decided to link the undersized Oldenburg and Cloppenburg areas with the oversized Osnabrück one, cutting two additional district boundaries rather than two municipal boundaries as would have been necessary otherwise.
