German residents spent 27.1 billion euros on cigarettes in 2022, 7.7% less than last year. We learn about this from the annual report of the German Addiction Inspectorate. Currently, 16% of women and 22% of men smoke in Germany; this index is decreasing annually.
Almost 7.9 million people in Germany (nearly one in ten) consume an unhealthy amount of alcohol, that is., at least one or two bottles of beer daily. This is more than the world average.
