Population:
Inhabitants are people residing permanently in the area. Anybody whose place of residence according to the Population Information System was in Finland at the end of the year (31 December) qualifies as an inhabitant regardless of nationality. The location of inhabitants is determined by the coordinates of the building they live in. The location of people living in institutions is determined by the coordinates of the institution, if known. However, people living in institutions without coordinates, Finnish nationals living temporarily abroad, and people whose location in the municipality is unknown are not included. Approximately one percent of the population lack coordinates. Data protection:
Data on main type of activity are confidential if there are less than 30 inhabitants in the area. The value in confidential fields is '...'.

Postal code area

2024 postal code areas
Paavo postal code areas (statistical postal code areas) have been produced at Statistics Finland for statistics production by postal code area. The limitation has been made using geographic information methods. The basis of the limitation is the postal code of the address of a building (data source Digital and Population Data Services Agency, Population Information System, Register of Buildings and Dwellings). The postal codes of individual addresses do not form areas, so the source data have been generalized to create the postal code areas. The statistical postal code area of a building is not always the same as the postal code of the address of that building. The boundary of the postal code area is mainly located midway between two buildings with different postal codes. The accuracy of the limitation of the location is higher where there are more buildings (e.g. densely populated areas).
The data are maintained annually for new and abolished postal code areas (in accordance with the Population Information System's data) and they are released annually in January. Statistics produced with postal code area classifications from different years are not comparable.
The municipality code (regional division of 1 January 2024) of the postal code area is determined based on the surface area. An area located on the border of several municipalities gets the municipality code with the larger surface area in the area.
