German emigration to France has resulted in it being the home of one of the largest communities of German population born outside Germany. Migration from Germany to France has increased rapidly from the 1990s onwards; by 2012, there were an estimated 130,000 German citizens living in France.[1] By 2019, the number has increased to 204,000 German citizens, with approximately 1 to 2.5 million people claiming German ancestry.
