Stock of dwellings; modes and mutations from 1921

This table provides figures on changes in the stock of dwellings in the Netherlands according to the definitions of the Basic Registers of Addresses and Buildings (BAG). The BAG provides basic information on all buildings and addresses per municipality in the Netherlands. The municipalities are responsible for the quality of the filling of the BAG. As of the 2012 reporting year, CBS uses the BAG as a source for the statistics ‘stock of dwellings and non-residents’. Before that, the statistics on the housing stock were based on the Housing Register. This transition to another source caused a breach of method. Due to the need for continuous long time series, research has been carried out on the nature and extent of the method breach in the housing stock 2011-2012 and has been repaired. The starting point for this break repair is that the new definitions are guiding according to the BAG. Data on the housing stock for 2012 are consistent with the data after 2012 in this table. Data available from: 1921 Status of the figures: The figures for the reporting period 1921 to 2020 are final. The 2021 figures are provisional. Change as of 26 January 2022: The provisional figures for 2021 have been added. When will there be new figures? Preliminary annual figures are published approximately 2 months after the reporting period. The final annual figures are published approximately 6 months after the reporting period.
