Rankings

Definition

Marriages during the year per 1,000 residents (average population of the year). EU countries: marriages registered in the country, as compiled by Eurostat.

Marriages are counted where they take place, so places where many non-residents marry (Cyprus, Denmark) have high rates. Some countries count same-sex marriages and others do not, and registered partnerships are not marriages.
