THE NORDSTAT DATABASE The major Nordic cities work together to produce comparable statistics. Major s of Scandinavia was published in 199. One of the pioneering new features of the publication was that it defined major city regions, and presented comparable statistics for cities, regions and countries. In connection with this project, the NORDSTAT database, which is available at www.nordstat.org, was set up. Since then, current statistics have been added to the database on an annual basis. An extract from the database has been published each year, entitled Nordic Major Statistics. It is now 15 years since the database was first created. The fact that data is now available for a significant number of years means that time series can be produced. This year s publication therefore includes a number of time series, with key figures or indices from the database, in order to give an idea of the information which can be compiled using the database.

POPULATION AND POPULATION CHANGES The Nordic major city regions are growing. This growth has risen from less than half a percent per year in the 197s to over one percent per year in the s. In 5, the 1 regions described here had a combined population of 11 million inhabitants. The fastest population growth has been seen in Oulu, where the population of the region is expected to double in size between 1971 and 1. This is partly due to more municipalities being added to the region, which has also been the case in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö. The Reykjavik region has also seen a rapid growth in population. 1 January 7 there was a municipal reform in Denmark. In this publication with statistics for the previous period the old regions and municipalitys is showed except for the population forecast. The diagrams on this page and the next page show population trends from 1971 onwards and a forecast for the next ten years up until 1. Pages -7 show population pyramids for cities and regions for 199 and. -centre dwellings are often small, making them suitable for single people and students, but less suitable for families with children. The cities therefore have a large number of inhabitants in the -35 age range, but fewer children, young people and parents.

HOUSEHOLDS In, % of the households in the regions consisted of one person. 3% consisted of two people, with the remainder consisting of three or more people. In central municipalities, single-person households made up half of all households. Despite the high proportion of singleperson households, only 1% of the population of the regions lived in single-person households. The average household consisted of.1 people. The most common household size was more than four people, accounting for over a third of inhabitants. During the period -, household sizes grew somewhat smaller in the regions, but increased somewhat in the cities. The proportion of single-person households has fallen in Copenhagen and, but grown in Helsinki, narrowing the gap between these cities. The proportion of singleperson households is greatest in the major cities.

MIGRATION The diagram shows migration trends for the period 199-5. Migration is shown in relation to population. Net migration 5 Total From abroad Total From abroad Many cities and major city regions gained a relatively large influx of new inhabitants in the mid-199s. Inward migration has fallen, and a number of cities such as Copenhagen, Helsinki and Reykjavik have experienced net outward migration. Often, the actual region has not experienced the same degree of outward migration, with inhabitants instead moving from the city to the peripheral municipalities. The majority of migration has taken place domestically. The NORDSTAT database includes details of emigration to other countries.

DWELLINGS COMPLETED The construction of dwellings varies considerably between the regions. The Helsinki region has seen the highest construction levels, building an average of 9, apartments each year since 199. The Copenhagen, Stockholm and regions have only built around half that number. Since the turn of the millennium, construction levels have risen dramatically in the Copenhagen, Stockholm and regions, and are now approaching the level seen in Helsinki. Only a small proportion of the dwellings constructed have been in the cities. Most of those built have been further out in the regions. In the smaller regions, a greater proportion of the new dwellings have been built in the cities.

UNEMPLOYMENT Unemployment in the major Nordic cities reached a peak in 1993-95. At that time, the sixteen regions had a combined total of over half a million unemployed people. Unemployment was then halved over the period up until 1, with a slight increase up until 5. Unemployment rates differ significantly between the countries. The cities of Iceland and Norway feature low levels of unemployment, while the cities of Finland, Denmark and Sweden have more than double the levels of unemployment. The highest levels of unemployment were in the Finnish cities. The cities often have somewhat higher levels of unemployment than their regions.

Reykjavik has the highest level of electoral participation, with over % voting in the municipal elections. T HE PUBLICATION Major Nordic Cities and s facts and figures 1999 gives a short presentation of the cities. The publication is a good introduction to the facts provided by the NORDSTAT database, and also helps giving the figures a more intelligible context. The Major Nordic Cities and s have been functionally delimited. They all comprise a major city of 1 inhabitants or more, and a commuting area consisting of neighbouring municipalities. DENMARK THE COPENHAGEN REGION The region comprises the cities of Copenhagen and Frederiksberg, and the counties (amt) of Copenhagen, Frederiksborg and Roskilde with a total of municipalities, including the neighbouring municipalities Gentofte and Gladsaxe in Copenhagen County, the old provincial cities of Helsingör and Hilleröd in Frederiksborg County and Roskilde and Köge in Roskilde County.
