In Brief

From 2019 to early 2026, motorhomes in Rhein-Sieg rose from 4,385 to 8,257 (+88.3%), the highest among Cologne district counties.

According to IT.NRW statistics, the number of motorhomes in the Rhein-Sieg district grew from 4,385 to 8,257 units between 2019 and early 2026, an increase of 88.3%. This is the highest figure among districts in the Cologne administrative region.
