Dataset is not available.


This table contains data on life style of the Dutch population in private households. These data can be grouped by several personal characteristics.

Data available from: 2014.

Status of the data: final.

Changes by March 14, 2024:
Data about 2023 have been added.
Figures about laughing gas have been added. The questions about nutrition have changed in 2023.
That is why a new series for nutrition will be started in 2023 and the old series of figures on nutrition (2014-2022) will no longer be added.

When will new data be published?
Data on reporting year 2024 will be published in the second quarter of 2025
