Discover the Key Figures 2024: your guide to understand Belgium at a glance
Statbel, the Belgian statistical office, is proud to present the 2024 edition of the Key Figures. This brochure uses charts, maps and infographics to give you a better understanding of Belgium, its regions and its municipalities. For the first time, this edition also focuses on the results of the Census 2021, which provides a wealth of information on the Belgian population eagerly awaited by citizens and academics alike.
In the Key Figures 2024, you will find a compilation of the Census’ 39 key indicators, summarising the major demographic trends in our country. These indicators allow you to gain some perspective on issues as diverse as population trends, regional dynamics and socio-economic trends. You will also have an unprecedented look at Belgium's 581 municipalities, an essential focus in the run-up to the forthcoming municipal elections.
Statistics: useful to everyone, aged 7 to 77
As Marie Vandresse, Director-General of Statbel, pointed out, the aim is simple: “To make statistics useful in decision-making for everyone.” Whether you are a student discovering the world of figures, a politician facing important decisions, or an entrepreneur seeking a better understanding of economic trends, the Key Figures 2024 are for you.
