2021 population numbers by administrative region (Περιφέρειες) and by municipality (Δήμοι) in Greece.
Sourced from the Hellenic Statistical Authority (ELSTAT) provisional data as announced in this PDF (sigh).
NOTE: The census results are still provisional. As per the Authority (op. cit., p. 61), logical and completeness checks are due, as well as cross-checks with national registries for quality control.
This project serves to provide the provisional results in a machine-readable format until they are officially published by the Hellenic Statistical Authority. Full census data are expected to be published in an appropriate technical format along with metadata at the EU Census Hub no later than April 1, 2024.
Data is currently available in CSV format and includes the following fields:
- Area code (ELSTAT code for municipalities, NUTS2 2021 for administrative regions).
- Area name.
- 2021 & 2011 total population.
- 2021 & 2011 male population.
- 2021 & 2011 female population.
