3.1 Basic statistics of persons and households
3.1.2 Topics
The basic statistics of people and households provide information and key figures on the size and structure of the population as well as on its development due to natural population changes (births
[p.10]
and deaths) and migrations. The population development is analysed retrospectively and prospectively (projections/scenarios).
These statistics must provide:
- Comprehensive data on the size and structure (age, sex, marital status, nationality, etc.) of the resident population in Switzerland.
- Information about the base universes of persons and households as well as on various sub-groups of the population which is comparable over space and time.
- Information on the changes (births, deaths, migrations) and development of the resident population as well as demographic balances.
- Information about the spatial distribution of the population in Switzerland. This information is available at the cantonal and communal levels, but also for small units below the commune level.
These are the main topics covered:
- Size and structure of the population (by age, sex, nationality, marital status, etc.)
- Population development
- Distribution of the population
- Scenarios of future population trends in Switzerland and the cantons
- International and internal migration
- Births, deaths, and natural increase
- Marriages and divorces, registered and dissolved civil partnerships
- Adoptions and acknowledgments of paternity
- Number, size, and composition of households
