Mümmelmannsberg is located in the east of Billstedt which is a part of the borough Mitte. It borders Hamburg-Lohbrügge and Oststeinbek in Schleswig-Holstein. The postal code is 22115.
The housing complex was built between 1970 and 1979. Today Mümmelmannsberg is also called “Mümmelberg", "M-Town", "Mümmeltown" or most commonly "Mümmel".[1]
Since 1990 Mümmelmannsberg has a U-Bahn station with the same name.
In April 2006 Mümmelmannsberg got nationwide recognition for a ZDF documentary. The German TV channel paid teenagers for recreating violent scenes about attacks and burglary. This was supposed to teach the audience about ghettos in cities. This incident got a big backlash for criminalizing innocent teenagers in Mümmemannsberg because of fictive acts. The place's image got worse and millennials complained about finding a job harder after the documentary was aired.[2]
The foreign population is about 23% (the entire district about 47%) and an above-average number of welfare recipients lives in Mümmelmannsberg.[3]
