Every row is indexed to the last count complete before the first day in office ("from" marks a start that had to move because that count had no data, or because the period cut it); Serbia is measured over the same months. 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, average of the year · Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia (RZS), estimated population of the city, the mean of the year, from its open data (180304IND02), from 2002 (the years before rest on the 1991 census and are not shown) · city (the administrative city) data · as of Apr 2026.
