Population and housing production projections of Helsinki

Population projection for the entire Helsinki and Helsinki region by age (and gender) in three options and the projection for Helsinki by area. In addition, the data includes the projection of residential construction in Helsinki by area.

Population and scope

The population projection by area applies to residents living permanently in the municipality. The projections are compiled annually by area and age group for a period of 15 years (for 10 years until 2018). The population projection is compiled considering the age and gender structure of the population, as well as the development of the birth rate, mortality and migration. The projection has been prepared in cooperation between the Urban Research and Statistics unit of the City Executive Office, the Housing unit and the Urban Environment Division.
