What the figures say and what they do not
Mosques and supermarkets come from OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL), as of Oktober 2026. We check names and locations; we do not visit the places. A supermarket counts as Turkish, Afghan or oriental when its name or tags say so; an entry does not mean a shop sells only halal goods. If a mosque or shop is missing, you can add it to OpenStreetMap and it appears with our next update.
