[[File:Bevölkerungsentwicklung in Offenbach.png|thumb|The development of the population in Offenbach between 1540 and 1997]]
Until the end of the 17th century, Offenbach remained a small town with less than a thousand inhabitants. With the coming into power of the count [[Johann Philipp]] in 1685, the city began to develop and the population rose steadily. In the 19th century the city became industrialized and the population increased even tenfold.<ref name="grossstadtmain">{{cite web|title=Offenbach – die kleine Großstadt am Main|url=http://www.offenbach.de/offenbach/themen/unterwegs-in-offenbach/stadtinfo/article/ofportrait.html|publisher=City of Offenbach|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140219072938/http://www.offenbach.de/offenbach/themen/unterwegs-in-offenbach/stadtinfo/article/ofportrait.html|archive-date=19 February 2014}}</ref>
