More than a million of the population is below 17 years of age. Similarly, more than a million of the population is over 60. The size of the active population (those in work plus the unemployed) is thus about 3 million persons. Most of them live in towns and urbanized districts. Copenhagen is the capital and the biggest city in Denmark. Other big cities are Århus, Odense and Aalborg. There are almost 2.9 million families, of which over 648,000 families have children. Almost 1.6 million adults live on their own, about 118,000 of them have children. In 1999 the population increased by 16,000 people. Immigration (net) to Denmark accounted for 9,000 of this increase. Immigrants and their descendants accounted for 7.1 pct. of the total population.
