Special Notes
■About PREF_04_CENSUS2020 and PREF_04_CENSUS2020_2:
In the 2020 national census, “Population aged 15 and over [people]” and “Percentage by occupation [%]” were published in separate tables, and a new column “Age (5-year age group)” was added only to the population aged 15 and over.
treustar aligned the table structure with that of 2015 and prepared two tables: one without the “Age (5-year age group)” column (PREF_04_CENSUS2020) and one with the column (PREF_04_CENSUS2020_2).
Since the original data in the table with the “Age (5-year age group)” column (PREF_04_CENSUS2020_2) does not include “Percentage by occupation [%]”, truestar processed and added this value.
