Population; country of origin, country of birth, age, region, 1 January

This table contains figures on the population of the Netherlands on 1 January. The data can be broken down by gender, age, country of origin, country of birth and region. Figures by specific countries of origin are published if at any time 20 thousand or more persons with this country of origin live in the Netherlands. The regional totals presented concern aggregations of municipalities. In case of border changes that cross different regional borders, the division of the municipalities is grouped according to the most recent situation. CBS is moving towards a new classification of the population by origin. From now on, it is more decisive where a person was born, besides where one’s parents were born. The word migration background is no longer used. The main classification of Western/Non-Westerns is replaced by a classification based on continents and common immigration countries. This classification is gradually introduced in tables and publications with population by origin. Data available from: 2022 Status of the figures: All figures in the table are final. Changes as of 6 January 2023: None, this is a new table. This table is the successor to ‘Population’; migration background, generation, lft, region, 1 Jan; 2010-2022. See paragraph 3.
