I think most of the ancestors of Austrian Jews left in the late 1930’s early 1940’s for Switzerland. I doubt very few survived to live past the war. They probably also did not pole a lot of Gypsies and over “undesirables”

In 1934 there were 176,034 Jews in Austria, or about 9% of the population. In 1951, there were 9,000 or about 0.6% of the population.

The greatest achievement of Austria in the 20th Century was convincing the world that Hitler was a German and Bach was an Austrian.
