Foreign-born population - Regions

This dataset provides statistics on foreign-born population, for large regions (TL2).

Data definiton

The database presents the foreign-born data following the region where the measure is observed and the place of birth. The measure of the count and integration of migrants can be compared with to that of native born. The indicators include demographic characteristics, educational level and labour market integration.

Definition of regions

Regions are subnational units below national boundaries. OECD countries have two regional levels: large regions (territorial level 2 or TL2) and small regions (territorial level 3 or TL3). The OECD regions are presented in the OECD Territorial grid (pdf) and in the OECD Territorial correspondence table (xlsx).
