About this ranking

Resident population aged 15 to 64 on 1 January (Eurostat).

The working-age band Eurostat uses for EU comparisons. population_16_64 (INE, Spain) starts at 16, so the two series differ.

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.
