Objectives
With MPU Statistics the aim is to make annually updated information available on the lawful population of the municipalities of the A.C. of Euskadi in the inter-register period, using the reference date of 31st December each year. In this way, important information such as the population figures in the inter-register periods is covered. This deals with the main data covered by demographic analysis -the effective number of the population.
Variations in the population are determined by the Natural Movement of the Population (births and deaths), Migratory Movements (immigration and emigration) and Fictitious Movements (registration by omission and cancelations due to improper and duplicated registration). Therefore, MPU besides presenting the development of large population figures, also offers the components of the population variation: Population Growth, Migratory Balance and Fictitious Balance.
This statistic gives precise and static information refering to a specific date, while the Natural Movement of the Population together with Migratory Movement Statistics, both sources of the MPU, complete the census statistics on population movements.
