Special Notes

■ About PREF_03_CENSUS2020 and PREF_03_CENSUS2020_2

In the 2020 national census, “Population aged 15 and over [people]” and “Percentage by industry [%]” were published in separate tables, and a new column “Age (5-year age group)” was added only to “Population aged 15 and over [people]”.

Truestar aligned the table structure with 2015 and prepared two tables, one without the “Age (5-year age group)” column (PREF_03_CENSUS2020) and another with the “Age (5-year age group)” column (PREF_03_CENSUS2020_2).

Since the original data does not include “Percentage by industry [%]” in the table with the “Age (5-year age group)” column (PREF_03_CENSUS2020_2), truestar processed and provided this value.
