Residence is a settlement in which a person has his/her
registered permanent or temporary residence.
Permanent residence is a settlement in which a person settled
or registered with the intention of living there permanently.
Temporary residence is a settlement in which a person
temporarily lives or is temporarily registered and is, as a rule, outside the
settlement of permanent residence.
Age is the period of time a person has lived from his/her birth
to the moment of observation (30 June 2006). It is expressed in completed years
of age. In tables of this issue of Rapid Reports age is shown single-year age
groups, by five-year age groups or by selected age groups.
Mean age is a weighted arithmetic mean of the age of a given
group of population. By calculating mean age in this issue of Rapid Reports the
means of five-year age groups were taken into account as weights for data by municipalities,
and the means of one-year age groups for data by statistical regions.
Ageing index is the ratio between the old population
(aged 65 years or more) and the young population (aged 0-14 years), multiplied
by 100.
Selected age groups means classification of population by age
into optional single-year, five-year or major age groups.
