These are sort of mutually exclusive. Berlin used to be poor, but as of 2019 it’s richer than the German average. This is admittedly unimpressive for a city-state, but still: Berlin is no country for poor men. It was, but no longer.

- leipert 3y ago“Average” GDP per capita doesn’t tell you how “rich” the individuals are. You should look at the median income per capita. Berlin ranks lower there than other federal states and cities. Look for example here where it ranks 318 out of 400. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_Landkreise/Kreise_und_Kreisfreien_Städte_nach_Einkommen https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_Landkreise/Kreise_...
