Population of the Helsinki region by native language and age 31.12.1999-

Description

Population of the Helsinki region by native language (all languages) and age as of 31 December 1999. ##Lower ranges The Helsinki region consists of four municipalities in the Helsinki metropolitan area: Helsinki, Espoo, Vantaa and Kauniainen, and ten surrounding municipalities: Hyvinkää, Järvenpää, Kerava, Kirkkonummi, Mäntsälä, Nurmijärvi, Pornainen, Sipoo, Tuusula and Vihti. The sums in the table are the Helsinki metropolitan area, the peri-urban area, Uusimaa and the Helsinki region. The regional division corresponds to the situation on 1 January of the statistical reference year. At the beginning of 2009, the south-western part of the municipality of Sipoo (now Östersundom area) and the so-called Västerkulla wedge area of the city of Vantaa were incorporated into Helsinki. This should be taken into account when comparing the population figures for the statistical years 2002-2008 with the figures for the statistical years 2009- concerning Helsinki, Vantaa and Sipoo, as well as the sum levels for the Helsinki Metropolitan Area and the spending limits area. The Helsinki region is a housing and labour market area. ##Target set and cropping Population means the population permanently resident in a municipality. Persons who, according to the Population Information System maintained by the Population Register Centre (VRK), are domiciled in a municipality at the turn of the year, belong to the population regardless of their nationality, as well as those Finnish citizens who live temporarily abroad. A foreign national is domiciled in a municipality if his or her stay is intended to last or has lasted at least one year. An asylum seeker will not be granted a place of residence until his or her application has been approved. Persons residing in the municipality who are members of a foreign embassy, a commercial mission or an office of a posted consul, as well as their family members and personal servants, do not belong to the municipality's population unless they are Finnish citizens. The Finnish personnel of Finnish embassies and commercial missions abroad, as well as those serving in the UN peacekeeping forces, are counted among the population of the municipality. At the turn of 1993/94, in accordance with the Population Information Act (507/93), the population at the turn of the year began to be used, replacing the previously used situation on 1 January. The difference is that the population at the turn of the year does not include those born and moved on the first day of the year. Before 1990, data on the life-written population were used. For the sake of simplicity, the tables use the situation on the first day of the year. From 1996 onwards, when compiling the population data for the first day of the year, all the previous year's change data received by the Population Information System of the Population Register Centre by the end of January (the end of May 1990 and the end of March 1991-95) are taken into account. ##Classifications Age is the age of a person in whole years. The information has been obtained from the Population Information System. The age information is presented in the table for languages/language groups with 5 or more speakers in the municipality. The mother tongue data has been obtained from the Population Information System. At the same time as notifying the birth child of the name in the register, the parents indicate the child's language. The language will remain the same in the Population Information System unless it is changed separately. The languages are encoded in accordance with the ISO 639-1 standard at the Population Register Centre. The table contains a total of 186 languages and different language groups. Below each language group are listed the languages classified in that group. Data encryption: if there are fewer than 5 language representatives in the statistics, the age structure is encrypted.
