Where would you like to live? Find out about your potential place of residence with the help of the description of Wolfsburg's most beautiful residential locations. In addition to descriptions of selected residential areas in the city center, you will also find information on the suburbs of Wolfsburg. Here you can find out, for example, about local amenities in Nordsteimke or whether there is a kindergarten with a crèche in Brackstedt.

Rental housing

25 housing projects, including rental apartments, are currently being planned or implemented. These are housing projects that will be built across the entire city area. In addition to projects directly in the city center, construction projects in Fallersleben, Detmerode and Nordsteimke/Hehlingen are being planned or are already under construction.

Registering, deregistering or changing residence

When moving to a new home, there is a lot to consider - including the change of residence. While the registration of a secondary residence can be done by e-mail, the main residence must be registered in person. To do this, use the city and district offices in your area!

Tip: If you are moving to Wolfsburg from another city/county, also remember to re-register your motor vehicle!

Resident parking permit

There are parking zones in the city center and in Vorsfelde where free parking is not available. As a tenant, however, you are entitled to a so-called resident parking permit. This is issued for a fee for various periods of validity.

Housing allowance

Under certain conditions it is possible to receive a subsidy for the rent or the running costs of the condominium as a citizen of the city.

Budget certificate

The household certificate is required, for example, to apply for child benefit at the Employment Agency (child benefit office). The household certificate can be applied for not only in the town hall, but also in the city and district offices.
