METHODOLOGICAL NOTE 1 The new regional comparisons comprise 50 European areas and two macro aggregates: EU27 for the European Union and EU27 for statistics that do not cover the two new Member State (Bulgaria and Romania). This publication provides national statistics of the 27 Member States, which enable to compare Italy and Lombardia to other Member States, as well as regional statistics, covering those regions that are similar to Lombardia. The 22 regions that are compared to Lombardia belong to the NUTS1 and NUTS2 categories and have been selected according to a set of parameters (described here below). The NUTS nomenclature (Nomenclature of territorial units for statistics) is drawn up by Eurostat according to a hierarchical classification of the institutional levels present in the various European countries. NUTS0 is country level (it for Italy, de for Germany, fr for France ). The NUTS1 category includes the German and Belgian Federal States and aggregates of regions of the most populated states (de1 for Bayern, be2 for Vlaams Gewest, itc for the North-West of Italy, ukg for thewest Midlands in the United Kingdom ). The NUTS2 category corresponds to the Italian regions, the French departments, the Spanish autonomous communities (itc4 for Lombardia, fr71 for Rhône-Alps, es51 for Cataluña ). LThe NUTS structure is the following: it Italia itc Nord Ovest itc4 Lombardia The parameters used to select the regions to be compared with Lombardia refer to: according to the following parameters: Surface area Population Population density Gross Domestic Product Per capita Gross Domestic Product

2 The values of the regions selected varied between + / - 50% compared to the values recorded in Lombardia; the data presented refer to those regions that had the largest number of parameters complying with this criterion. Although not fully meeting the parameters required, some other regions were included in the comparisons, in order to provide a more balanced description of the various Member States. Hence the statistics presented cover 23 regional areas (13 NUTS1 and 10 NUTS2), including Lombardia, out of a total of 82 areas under NUTS1 level and 254 areas under NUTS2 level.

12 TERRITORY POPULATION DENSITY. YEAR 2008 Inhabitants per km 2 Source: calculation based on Eurostat data The European regions observed are characterised by different population densities. These range from less than 100 inhabitants per km 2 (Andalucía) to nearly 1,000 inhabitants per km 2 (Île de France). The population density of Île de France is more than two times greater than the one of Lombardia, which is equal to 425 inhabitants per km 2.
