Each row shows the country's latest published year - the Data year column says which, so unequal vintages never read as a like-for-like comparison. The change columns show how each country's own published series moved over one, five, and ten years.

Read with caution: measurement bases differ - a census count, a residence-permit register, and a population register are not the same instrument. Open a country for its sources and methodology notes. Countries that do not publish the metric are absent from this table, not zero.

Figures on this page come from national statistical authorities and Eurostat. Every country page lists its exact publishers, with links to the datasets.
