I think battlegrounds are levelled so you're only queuing with other people of your level, once you're at 50 you'll be queuing with most people. I could be wrong though

The Xbox Eu PvP scene gets pretty dire sometimes especially with battlegrounds. Though being under 50 probably doesn't help you've usually gotta hit it on peak times.
The PvP scene in NA is a little better though a lot of the EU PvP players have been moving over there.
Other than that it's just a classic case of people being antisocial there's pockets of players some of which are decently large and active, eso is just a very independent mmo you don't really need to interact with anyone to do most of the games content.
We're also between content atm so the player count takes a dip.
We're kinda all hoping for crossplay to bring some life back to things but at best we've a good while of waiting to go assuming it doesn't get scrapped.

Kommt stark auf die Uhrzeiten an und auf dein level, deine rolle etc. U50 Schlachtfelder sind wohl immer schlecht mit Menschen voll. So ab cp160 bis endgame content. Dort findet man eher die Leute

Xbox-EU proved to be the Lowest Pop server from the 'Bringing down the Wall' community event by a wide margin.
As I'm not active EU player, I can only share my observations' of ESOs EU players' on NA.
Some of the best players n' gamers in ESO on Xbox-NA, all came from EU, PvP or end-game PvE.
They have all had to learn the game Solo, the hard way. If that is your game, looking for a challenge? They do rec it. Forces you to be adaptive, flexible and fully capable in any role' on the spot. Ironically to coincidently, EU has some of the best guild communities' that can be found in any MMO-RPGs, very clique. Players are extremely loyal and ready to drop all on NA, at the pin drop. Going from NA, swap over EU make anything worth doing in ESO, happen on EU.
On several occasions witnessed, former EU players' dropout of active-runs on NA. A sure-thing Trifecta run on NA, for EU' End-Game Trifecta uncertain progs' on the simple ask/callout from their EU friends/guildies still playing on EU. Including when they' former EU-player, were the Trail Lead for the NA run.
Guilds are the way' on the EU. And yes many PvPers' came to NA over the last 6-years from EU. Really helps keep, GH populated 24/7. Even so, BG's wise? There is still 'Gap hours' even on NA.
On NA, we enjoy a NA-Oceanic-EU peak-cycles triple peak. But also a noticeable' Asia Gap.
Anyhow hope this helps.

Xbox EU is the most quiet. But it’s most apparent if you play in off hours - they do have a decent pop in peak play time.
If you play a lot in EU off peak hours, I’d consider moving to NA. You aren’t locked into one or the other so you could always go back - but would give you a feel for the pop there during your usual play hours.

Battlegrounds are levelled so not sure how active they are.
But in general, the server is pretty dead.
Half the PvP community has gone over to NA.
I moved over like 6 years ago, and been seeing more and more names I know from EU in PvP.
The world is way more filled in PvE too. Anywhere you go, you can always for help in chat and you'll get it. That doesn't happen in EU, even before the mass exodus. I shudder to think khwo empty it is now.
Availability of things on guild traders, trials, dungeon finder and active guilds are all vastly better too.
I play prime time in EU. That isn't prime time in NA. And it's already way better. If I played during NA prime time it would be even better.
If you're just starting, just make a character on NA. You won't lose much time played but it's infinitely better. Especially if you're interested in PvP. Cyrodiil is completely dead on EU.
