Population
Present population
consists of those who are at a given location at the time of the census,
including persons living temporally at the location (provided
their absence at permanent place of residence is no more than 12 months).
Resident population consists of
those who permanently live at a given location at the time of the census,
including those who are temporarily absent, if
their absence at permanent place of residence does
not exceed 12 months.
Urban and rural population.
The urban population includes persons who reside in urban type settlements. The
rural population are those who reside in rural areas. Urban type settlements are
the centers of the population which are approved by legislation as towns and the
urban type settlements. The rest of the population centers are rural.
The number of pensioners
is the total number of pensioners in
Data on births and deaths are based
on birth and death certificates, which are completed by the civil status
registration bodies. According to the normative documents of Ministry of Health
of Ukraine up to the January 1, 2007
births were registered live or dead born with the body weight of
pregnancy and more); live and dead born with body weight of less than

Natural increase (decrease) of the population
is the difference between the number of live births and deaths.
Crude birth and death rates
represent the ratio of the number of the (live) births and deaths, respectively,
for a calendar year to the average annual number of the present population.
Produced per 1000 present persons.
Age specific fertility rates
are produced as a ratio of the number of children (live births) born to females
of this age group to average annual number of females at this age.
When defining the indicators for the age group under 20 years old, the number
of
females
aged 15−19 years old is conventionally taken.
The compilation
of indicator for age group of 15−49 years old is made including children born to
females
at the age of more than 49 years old and under 15.
Total fertility rate
shows how many children would have been born to females during the reproductive
age (15−49 years old) if the birth rates for those years for which the age
coefficients are produced had been preserved at each age.
Total fertility rate is produced as a
sum of age coefficients of births for age groups at interval 15−49 years old.
Number of illegitimate births
includes the births that are registered by joint
declaration made
by father and mother who are not married, or only through a mother’s
declaration or court’s
decision that puts it in
the birth
record. If a child
is born after the death of a person who was married to its mother, the dead
could be recorded as father of
a child
provided that no
more
than 10
months have passed between the day of his death and the birth of a child.
Age specific death
rates
are
compiled as a ratio of the number of deaths of specific age group to average
annual number of the population at this age group.
Death rates by cause of death
are calculated by dividing the number of the dead from the stated causes of
death by average annual number of the present population.
Death rate for infants under 1 year old
is the ratio of the number of the dead under 1 year old to the number of live
births.
Death rates by causes of death for infants under 1 year old
are calculated by dividing the number of infants under 1 year old dead from the
stated death causes by the number of live births.
Life expectancy at birth
is the average number of years that a new generation of births would live
provided that during the whole life of this generation (when passing
from one
age to another) the death rate was equal the current death rate for the
population in selected age groups.
Crude marriage and divorce rates
are a ratio of the number of marriages and divorces registered during a year to
the average annual number of present population.
Migration
increase (decrease)
is the difference between the number of those who arrived to a given location
and those who left it.
Intraregional migration
is the migration of the population within one region (Autonomous Republic of
Crimea, region, cities of Kyiv and
Interregional migration
is the migration of the population from one region to the others within
International migration
is the immigration of the population outside
From April 2016 to September 2017 information on population migration was compiled according to available administrative data received from separate registration bodies (executive bodies of rural, village or city council, rural heads (if the executive body of rural council was not set up in line with the legislation)).
All flows of migration include intraregional, interregional and inter-state.
Inter-state migration - the departure of the population from Ukraine or arrival in Ukraine from other countries.
