Comparability — General

Only sample for year 2000 exists for the Philippines.

Cities are identified if their population and the population in the province outside of the city were both sufficiently large to meet requirements for confidentiality. Some large cities may therefore be excluded because the residual population in their province was insufficiently large. It is possible for more than one city within a province to be identified.
