About this ranking

Residents aged 0 to 14 as a percentage of total population.

More on how it is measured
  • Eurostat figures for the EU, its countries and NUTS regions refer to 1 January; Statistics Finland figures for Finnish municipalities refer to 31 December; World Bank figures for other countries and the World refer to mid-year.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the regions are compared on one definition. Equal values share a rank.
