[A new measure for degree of urbanization: the address density of the surrounding area].

A new method of measuring the degree of urbanization of a given area, developed by the Dutch Central Bureau of Statistics, is introduced. "The measure classifies areas according to what is called address density of the surroundings: the average address density within a radius of 1 km of an address in the area." The advantages are discussed, and the measure is used to classify the 647 municipalities in the Netherlands into five groups according to urbanization level. (SUMMARY IN ENG)

[The institutional population: trends].

"The institutional population includes the population in homes for the aged, nursing homes, psychiatric hospitals, prisons and educational and religious institutions. On 1 January 1990 there were 278,000 people in this population group in the Netherlands, which amounts to 2% of the total population. During the period 1960-1990 the institutional population showed a smaller increase than the total population (6% vs. 30%); during the eighties the number has decreased. In this population the share of people of 65 or older has increased from 29% in 1960 to 67% in 1987." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
