Bodenseekreis: housing benefit office (Wohngeldstelle)

Bodenseekreis is made up of 23 towns and municipalities. In Baden-Württemberg, the city districts (Stadtkreise), the district offices (Landratsämter) and the major district towns (Große Kreisstädte) are housing benefit offices. If you live in a Große Kreisstadt, you usually apply to the town; otherwise to the Landratsamt. The table shows, for each municipality, the office that is usually responsible and the rent level (Mietenstufe).
