Dataset is not available.
Population growth in The Netherlands by birth, death and migration by sex and region.
In addition to national data, information is presented by group of provinces, province, COROP region and municipality.
The regional totals shown concern cumulated municipal data. Where changes of municipal boundaries transect regional boundaries, the municipal classifications concerns the most recent situation. The municipality of Vianen, for example, was annexed by the province of Utrecht on 1 January 2002, and is classified under the province of Utrecht in the Table.
Data available from: 1942
Status of the figures:
All data recorded in this publication are final data.
Up to 1977 data may differ from other published data on StatLine. This is due to differences between the data files used by Statistics Netherlands and the official data as published in 'Loop van de bevolking per gemeente'.
Changes as of 4 August 2023:
Final figures of 2022 have been added.
Changes as of 12 June 2023:
The 2021 population density figures for all regions were incorrect due to the use of an incorrect data file. These figures have been corrected in this version of the table.
When will new figures be published?
In the 3rd quarter of 2024 figures of 2023 will be added in this table.
Description topics
- Departures from municipality
- Departures from the municipality due to emigration or intermunicipal move.
Emigration:
People leaving for another country.
Intermunicipal move:
A move from one municipality to another, excluding changes caused by an adjustment of municipal borders.- Due to emigration including administr...
- Emigration including net administrative corrections.
Data on emigration including net administrative corrections give a better impression of the true level of emigration than data excluding net administrative corrections.
Break in series administrative corrections
Until 1977, Statistics Netherlands had no information on administrative corrections available at the municipal level. The figures up to 1977 do not include administrative corrections.
Break in series external migration
As a result of an improved production process, a small shift has occurred in the figures on external migration.
From 2010 the following changes have been implemented.
- administrative entries preceding emigration are now considered as immigration;
- administrative removals followed by immigration are now considered as emigration
Emigration:
People leaving for another country.
Until October 1994, persons who had the intention to leave the Netherlands for a period exceeding 360 days were deregistered. From October 1994, the anticipated length of stay abroad in the year after settlement in another country is at least eight months.
Administrative correction:
Entry in and removal from the municipal population register for reasons other than birth, death, arrival, departure or municipal boundary change. The majority of administrative corrections refer to persons who are no longer living in their former place of residence, usually because they have settled in a foreign country. Administrative corrections resulting in registration usually concern persons who have been found (in their former place of residence or elsewhere) and are entered into the municipal population registers. This explains why the net administrative corrections are included in emigration (and net migration) but not in immigration.
.
Net administrative corrections:
Administrative entries minus administrative removals.
Administrative entry:
Decision by a municipality, at the request of the person concerned, to include that person in its population while it has no knowledge of birth, immigration or establishment of that person from another municipality in the Netherlands.
Administrative removal:
Decision by a municipality no longer to include a person in its population, once it has established that the address of the person is unknown, the person cannot be contacted and probably no longer resides in a municipality in the Netherlands.
