In 1971, the independent village decided, together with two other settlements, to become part of Idstein.[3] The Stadtteil became a Ortsbezirk with elected representatives (Ortsbeirat, headed by the Ortsvorsteher, according to the Hessische Gemeindeordnung.[4] Since 1977, Idstein has been part of the Rheingau-Taunus-Kreis. In 2011, the 2011 German census counted 291 inhabitants, 24 of them foreigners (8,2 %), living in 132 households.[5][6]
