Technical details[edit]
The data in this template can be updated from time to time with new up-to-date CBS stats. Also consider updating the month, year and reference of the data when you would update the population numbers. The urban data for Amsterdam, 's-Gravenhage, Haarlem, Leiden and Rotterdam and the metro data for Eindhoven, 's-Gravenhage and Eindhoven are updated to their respective figures on 1 January 2020. The Amsterdam metro data is updated to 1 January 2019. There are no current definitions for urban areas or metro regions of any other city in the Netherlands, per the CBS as of 8 March 2021. Other figures remain as of 2014, but it may be better to remove them, as they are quite dated.
