The census is a complete registration of all inhabitants of a country. Here, not only the people are counted, but captures detailed information on the living conditions of the people. In addition, the existing buildings of a country are counted. The results are then used not only for one-time statistical analysis but rather as a basis for updating of all statistical quantities until the next census date.

While in the past 1987 "people, professional, building, housing and employment census" yet all 61.2 million inhabitants were interviewed (full survey), in 2011 for the first time in German history, a "register-based census“ was conducted. Note that the data that already exist in the administrative registers used and complemented by a combination of censuses and sample surveys were. As a result, two thirds of Germany’s population did not have to be questioned in 2011 to be coming at all levels to detailed results.

Retail-related purchasing power: The portion of general purchasing power spent by consumers in mail-order and over-the-counter retail businesses.

POS sales: Point-of-Sale sales show a projected total turnover value for the retail sector. The index amount per inhabitant invariably correlates to the national average (Index = 100). [An index amount of 110 shows a 10% higher gross average in sales per inhabitant in retail in this region compared to the national average.Anindexamountof 90meansthat10% lessin salesper inhabitantis achieved in retailin thisregion compared to the national average.]

Retail Centrality: Retail Centrality shows the inflow resp. outflow of purchasing power within a city as well as within an entire region and therefore indicates the attractiveness of a location. [Anindexamountof morethan100shows anexisting influxof purchasing power, meaning in thisregion thereare higher sales in retail than people livingthere actuallyspend inretail. Anindex amountof lessthan 100indicates anoutflow ofpurchasing power,i.e. in this region there are lower sales in retail than people living there actually spend in retail.]
