How this chart was made
  • The figures are Statistics Norway's own, from table 07459: number of persons by year of age, women and men, whole country, 1 January. We added women and men and every year of age within each group.
  • The age groups are our choice, not Statistics Norway's: 0–19, 20–66 and 67 and older. The share is the number of people in the group divided by all residents.
  • The squares are shared out by the largest remainder rule: each group gets the whole squares it is owed, and the squares left over go to the groups with the largest remainders. The total is then always 100, which ordinary rounding does not guarantee. The number in the headline is the number of squares for the oldest group.

Statistics Norway's notes on the table

  • Expired municipalities in the period 1986-2013 are not included in the table that distributes people in Police districts 2016. The figures for several of the Police districts 2016 are therefore not complete for this period.
