Footnotes

According to the 2016 urban-rural typology, at-risk-of-poverty-rate means:
The AROPE (At Risk of Poverty or Social Exclusion) indicator is part of the system to monitor the fulfilment of the goals of the Europe 2020 strategy. A person is at a risk of poverty or social exclusion if at least one of the three factors is realised in their household:
- A person has a low income if they live in a household where income per consumption unit is less than 60 per cent of the national median income.
- All people under 60 years of age whose household produces an input of less than 20 per cent of the potential input of that household during the survey year are underemployed.
- People whose household is deprived by at least four out of nine indicators are considered to be severely materially deprived. These indicators are inability to pay rent, mortgage or utility bills, difficulties in covering unexpected expenses, or the household cannot afford a telephone, washing machine, TV set, car, a protein-rich meal every other day, one-week holiday once a year outside the home or to keep their home adequately warm. This information is based on sample-based EU statistics on income and living conditions (EU-SILC). Municipality-based urban-rural typology:
In a municipality-based urban-rural typology, a municipality is regarded as an urban area if the number of population in its inner and outer core urban areas is higher than the number of rural population outside the sub-urban area. A municipality located in a sub-urban area is regarded as an urban area or a rural area close to an urban area on the basis of its urban and rural characteristics. Other municipalities are classified as rural areas close to urban areas, rural heartland areas and thinly populated rural areas on the basis of their total land area and the number of population. Information about rural centres is included in the surrounding area category.
