Statistical district

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Statistical districts are used for the differentiated consideration of specialist geographic data for the area of ​​a municipality. In doing so, municipality or city ​​districts as well as districts or localities are subdivided into small areas (also contrary to historically grown local boundaries) in order to be able to use the spatial information for statistical statements and spatial planning . Further statistical subdivision levels are, for example, subdistricts and building blocks.

For example, cities such as Marl , Lünen 14, Dortmund 62, Krefeld 45, Linz (Austria) 16, Potsdam 84, Munster 45, Nuremberg 87, Aachen and Braunschweig 74 and other cities have statistical districts.

In Switzerland, Bern uses 36 statistical districts .

As a rule, the data on this statistical level can be combined for various topics, for example in the school system (primary school districts, etc.), health care (health department supervisory districts, reception areas for psychiatry, etc.), religious affairs (parishes, pastoral care districts), elections (state parliament, etc.) and other matters (Postal code areas, tax office districts, arbitration districts, crime rate, payment of various transfer payments and the like).
