Location profile: less vacancy than the town
Rabenau lies 11.8 kilometres south of central Dresden in the Eastern Ore Mountains, above the Rabenauer Grund. Oelsa belongs to the western part of the town area.
At 3.3 people per residential building the structure is a one- and two-family house location. Owner-occupancy stands at 79.0 percent, well above the Rabenau town figure of 70.6 percent.
Vacancy of 3.7 percent is the decisive difference: across the town area the figure is 6.4 percent, almost twice as high.
What I observe here: Rabenau at 6.4 percent has high vacancy for the near countryside, Oelsa at 3.7 percent does not. Anyone accepting the town figure as the basis for negotiation gives away room here that need not be given.
