Did you know that in 2009 the average age for all Danish women who gave birth were 30.5 years of age? Or that Lucas and Emma were the most popular names for children born in the first half of 2008? Or that an average family each month spend about DKK 300 on vegetables?

By examining the Statistical Yearbook you will discover that it is a source of lots of useful and interesting information that only exists as a whole in this book.

You can search for peculiar and funny information like the information in the board game Trivial Pursuit, but you can also find knowledge that describes the serious aspects of the Danish society.

For those with no experience in statistics ...

The Statistical Yearbook contains hundreds of thousands of figures, and because figures themselves does not reveal everything we have written more than 130 pages of text and spiced them with almost 200 graphs. 

... and for the experienced user
The yearbook is the largest collection of statistics that Statistics Denmark publishes in book-form, and there are just about 500 tables in the Statistical Yearbook.
