About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Greece town population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of Greece town across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.

Key observations

In 2023, the population of Greece town was 94,591, a 0.70% decrease year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Greece town population was 95,254, a decline of 0.78% compared to a population of 96,003 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Greece town increased by 377. In this period, the peak population was 97,017 in the year 2013. The numbers suggest that the population has already reached its peak and is showing a trend of decline. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

In 2023, the share of urban population in Greece remained nearly unchanged at around 80.67 percent. Nevertheless, 2023 still represents a peak in the share in Greece with 80.67 percent. The urban population refers to the share of the total population living in urban centers. Each country has their own definition of what constitutes an urban center (based on population size, area, or space between dwellings, among others), therefore international comparisons may be inconsistent.Find more key insights for the share of urban population in countries like Italy and Malta.

Abstract

The Household Budget Survey (HBS) is a national survey collecting information from a representative sample of households, on household composition, members employment status, living conditions and, mainly, focusing on their members expenditure on goods and services as well as on their income. The expenditure information collected from households is very detailed.

The main purpose of the HBS is to determine in detail the household expenditure pattern in order to revise the Consumer Price Index. Moreover, the HBS is the most appropriate source in order to:

• Complete the available statistical data for the estimation of the total private consumption;
• Study the households expenditures and their structure in relation to their income and other economic, social and demographic characteristics;
• Analyze the changes in the living conditions of the households in comparison with the previous surveys;
• Study the relationship between households purchases and receipts in kind;
• Study low income limits in the different socio-economic categories and population groups;
• Study the changes in the nutritional habits of the households.

Frequency of data collection

The frequency of data collection is continual spread within the reference year.

Sampling procedure

The two-stage area stratified sampling was adopted for the HBS survey based on the rotational integrated design method and on the Population Census of 2011 as well. This method was judged as the most appropriate for both cross -sectional and longitudinal comparisons.

The primary sampling units (PSUs) are the areas (one or more unified city blocks), the secondary sampling units selected in each primary unit are the households and their members. In each Region (NUTS 2), the stratification of primary units was conducted by allocating the Municipalities and Communes according to the degree of urbanization (urban, semi-urban, and rural regions). Except for the two former Major City Agglomerations (Athens and Thessaloniki).

The Greater Athens Area was divided into 31 strata of about equal size (equal number of households) on the basis of the lists of city blocks of the Municipalities that constitute it and taking into consideration socio-economic criteria. Similarly, the Greater Thessaloniki Area was divided into 9 equally sized strata. The two former Major City Agglomerations account for 37% of the total population and for even larger percentages in certain socio-economic variables.

1st stage of sampling

In this stage, from any stratum (crossing of Region with the degree of urbanisation), primary units were drawn. The number of draws is approximately proportional to the population size of the stratum (number of households in the last population census of the year 2011).

2nd stage of sampling

In this stage from each primary sampling unit (selected area) the sample of secondary units (households) was selected. Actually, in the second stage we drew a systematic sample of dwellings. However, in most cases, one household corresponds to each dwelling. If in the selected dwelling lives more than one household, all of them were interviewed. The sampling frame containing the secondary units (households) in the selected sampling primary units was updated before the selection of households. The total number of the primary sampling units was 1023. Due to non-response, the actual total number of primary sampling units was 1004.

The survey was conducted on a sample of 6150 private households throughout the Country.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the data for the Greece, New York population pyramid, which represents the Greece town population distribution across age and gender, using estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates. It lists the male and female population for each age group, along with the total population for those age groups. Higher numbers at the bottom of the table suggest population growth, whereas higher numbers at the top indicate declining birth rates. Furthermore, the dataset can be utilized to understand the youth dependency ratio, old-age dependency ratio, total dependency ratio, and potential support ratio.

Key observations

• Youth dependency ratio, which is the number of children aged 0-14 per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Greece, New York, is 27.6.
• Old-age dependency ratio, which is the number of persons aged 65 or over per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Greece, New York, is 33.4.
• Total dependency ratio for Greece, New York is 61.0.
• Potential support ratio, which is the number of youth (working age population) per elderly, for Greece, New York is 3.0.
