No new basic statistical units or municipalities were created in 2014.

See the standard classification of basic statistical units under the heading “additional information” for the details.

There are some minor changes in the figures for basic statistical units as well as for municipalities as a consequence of ongoing quality work by The Norwegian Mapping Authority.

How to get figures from StatBankOpen and readClose

If you want to get the figures for each single basic unit, or all the basic units, this has to be done in several steps. After choosing the desired table, select the “Select via groups” tab, then select the option “region” in the scroll menu called “Select variable”, and select one of the groups in the scroll menu that appears. After choosing the required basic units, select the button “Select as single values”. You can now return to the “My table” tab and proceed as usual.
