Functional urban areas http://www.oecd.org/cfe/regional-policy

Introduction

The OECD, in cooperation with the EU, has developed a harmonised definition of functional urban areas (FUAs). Being

composed of a city (or core) and its commuting zone, FUAs encompass the economic and functional extent of cities based on

daily people’s movements (OECD, 2012); (Dijkstra, Poelman, & Veneri, 2019). The definition of FUA aims at providing a

functional/economic definition of cities and their area of influence, by maximising international comparability and overcoming

the limitation of using purely administrative approaches. At the same time, the concept of FUA, unlike other approaches,

ensures a minimum link to the government level of the city or metropolitan area.

FUAs are listed below by size, according to four classes:

• Small FUAs, with population between 50,000 and 100,000

• Medium-sized FUAs, with population between 100,000 and 250,000

• Metropolitan FUAs, with population between 250,000 and 1.5 million

• Large metropolitan FUAs, with population above 1.5 million

A city is a group of local administrative units (i.e. LAU for European countries, such as municipality, local authorities, etc.)

where at least 50% of its population live in an urban centre. An urban centre is defined as a cluster of contiguous grid cells of

one square kilometer with a density of at least 1,500 inhabitants per square kilometer and a population of at least 50,000

inhabitants overall.

The commuting zone is composed of the local administrative units for which at least 15% of their workforce commute to the

city. Commuting zones of the functional areas are identified based on commuting data (travel from home-to-work). Commuting

data are also used to define whether more than one city share the same commuting zone in a single polycentric functional

urban area.

The list of functional urban areas takes into account the results of the consultation with the European National Statistical

Institutes launched by Eurostat in June 2011 on the definition of cities and by the OECD with Delegates from the Working

Party on Territorial Indicators. This list of functional urban areas may be reviewed on the basis of additional comments provided

by countries. The OECD Metropolitan Database provides a set of economic, environmental, social and demographic modelled

indicators on the 668 OECD metropolitan areas (functional urban areas with 250 000 or more inhabitants).

Additionally, interactive maps, histograms and summary profiles of each metropolitan area are available on the OECD

Regions and Cities Data Visualisation tool.
