Rationale and advantages 3.1 Captures the urban-rural continuum in harmonised manner 3.2 Uses the same population size and density thresholds across the globe 3.3 Starts from a population grid to reduce the bias generated by the different shapes and sizes of spatial units 3.4 Measures population clusters directly 3.5 Defines areas to monitor access to services, not areas defined by access to services 3.6 Proposes a cost-effective approach References 4. How the principles of official statistics and classifications are fulfilled References and further information 5.
