Register Census 2011

The register-based census 2011 is one of the regular statistical surveys conducted by the Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia. Registered-based census is a method of producing data on population, households and dwellings by the statistical linking together existent administrative and statistical data sources without using fieldwork enumeration. With the transition to the register-based census, Slovenia joined few European countries that had already implemented this way of collecting and processing data on population, households and dwellings to reduce the administrative burden and lower research expenses. There are two anonymised datasets (persons and dwellings, without households and families) prepared for the purpose of a simpler distribution of microdata to other types of microdata users. They represent a 5-percent sample of all Slovenian households.
