People seems to not show username or IP number To Chistian2381 I have not written since I suggested to move this to my talk site Boeing729 DST Danmarks Statistik doesn t do anything more then count the people living inside Hovedstadsomr det they do the publications But it is Kort og Matrikelstyrelsen KMS that definies Hovedstadsomr det But whwn when it comes to Amager it s very obvious that large areas of the island including a part of Copenhagen is not urban that KMS has included into Hovedstadsomr det is not urban at all Neighther is Salholm and Peberholm For some very strange reason these areas is included in Hovedstadsomr det So the urban area of Copenhagen is not equal to Hovedstadsomr det not at Amager which includes Saltholm and Peperholm Hovedstadsomr det does NOT follow the definitions by UN standards and have large areas whthout buildings Huge areas But theey still counts as Hovedstadsomr det But urban Copenhagen Urban area is smaller and has thereby higher population density There simply is not UN definition of urban Copenhagen area at present Hovedstadsomr det is 455 km2 and is including atleast these empty areas of Amager incl Saltholm and Peberholm I belive that chistian2381 has got a fair estemation of the Copenhagen Urban Area However let s not involve Hovedstadsregionen at this point Boeing720
