Comparability — General
MIG2_5_HN is only available for the 1974, 1988, 2001 and 2013 samples.
Where boundaries changed over time, units were harmonized to create units with boundaries that remain stable over time. Where officially defined municipalities have populations less than 20,000, they have been regionalized (combined) with neighboring municipalities.
