Levels are per cent changes, rates are differences in %; "per year" compounds levels and divides rates. Tenures with under 12 months, or under three observations, are left out. thousands, metropolitan area · Census and estimates via the OECD metropolitan database (functional urban area), calendar years dated at mid-year · metropolitan area (functional urban area) data · as of Sep 2026.
