About this data
<p align="justify">This dataset provides population counts by citizenship in OECD Functional Urban Areas (FUAs) and cities.</p> <h3>Data sources and methodology</h3> <p align="justify"> Population by citizenship data is collected at the level of small administrative units (e.g. municipalities) and aggregated at the FUA and city level.
