Municipal accounts; balance sheet by region and size class

This table contains figures on balance sheet items from municipalities by size class and region at year-end. The figures are stated in millions of euros as well as in euros per inhabitant. The figures presented in the table are based on balance sheet positions that are in line with the definitions and classifications used by the municipalities themselves in their administration. This data is supplied to Statistics Netherlands via the survey ‘Information for third parties’ (Iv3). The requirements for this survey are laid down in the “Decision on Budget and Accountability (BBV)”. Data available from: 2004 Status of the figures: The figures in this table are provisional at the time of first publication. The figures become definitive when figures for the following year are added to the series. Changes as of 16 December 2021: The provisional figures for 2020 have been added. The figures for 2019 have been adjusted from provisional to definite. When will new figures be published? The new figures from the local intergovernmental organisation accounts are published no later than 12 months after the reporting period. The figures can be adjusted on the basis of the availability of new or updated source material. In general, the adjustments are small. The adjustments are made the moment a new annual figure is added to the series.
