Some 90,000 apartments in Leipzig were built in buildings during Communist rule in East Germany.* Although some of these have been demolished and fewer people live in this type of accommodation in recent years, a significant number still live in Plattenbau apartments. Grünau, for example, had about 43,600 people living in this sort of accommodation in 2016.
