##Target and cropping
Population is defined as a permanent resident population in a municipality. Persons who, according to the Population Information System maintained by the Population Register Centre (VRK), are resident in the municipality at the turn of the year belong to the population regardless of their nationality, as are Finnish citizens temporarily residing abroad.
A foreigner is domiciled in a municipality if his or her stay is intended to last or has lasted for at least one year.
The asylum seeker will not have his or her domicile until his/her application has been accepted.
Persons belonging to a foreign embassy, a commercial mission or a seconded consular office living in a municipality, as well as their family members and personal service, do not belong to the municipality’s population unless they are Finnish nationals. On the other hand, Finnish staff from Finnish embassies and commercial missions abroad, as well as those serving in the UN peacekeeping forces, are included in the population of the municipality.
At the turn of 1993/94, in accordance with the Population Data Act (507/93), the population at the turn of the year replaced the previously used 1 January situation.
The difference is that the population at the turn of the year has not been born and moved on the first day of the year. Prior to 1990, information on the life-written population was used.For the sake of simplicity, the tables use the first day of the year.
From 1996 onwards, all data on changes in the Population Information System of the Population Register Centre received from the end of January (1990 until the end of May and 1991-95 to the end of March) will be taken into account in the population information system of the first day of the year.
