Vienna in Figures 2010
WIEN IN ZAHLEN 2008 – 3

PREFACE
Dear readers,
in times of economic difficulty, Vienna remains a stronghold
of business characterised by a high degree of stability and
social cohesion. The city’s specific assets include a highly
qualified workforce, above-average productivity and a broad
range of international training centres. The federal capital
of Austria holds top positions in a number of international
rankings, such as the annual Quality of Living Index and the
European Green City Index. With 9.9 million tourist overnight
stays in 2009, Vienna also remains a highly popular tourist
destination.
The present publication provides background information
on the above and many other areas, covering a variety of topics related to business
and the labour market as well as the city’s population, urban area and public
administration. I am confident that the current issue of “Vienna in Figures” will make
interesting and enjoyable reading.

310 hours of sunshine were recorded in April 2009, making
April the second sunniest month of 2009 and the third sunniest
since recording started in 1881. Because of unusually
warm weather conditions around Easter, April also became
the month with the most significant divergences from the
respective monthly average for temperature (+4.4°C) and
precipitation (-92%) of the entire year 2009.

Bratislava, the EU capital closest to Vienna, this takes about
3.5 times as long.

again calculated on the basis of the LFC.

The registered rate as national unemployment rate is calculated on the basis of
persons registered as unemployed with the Labour Market Services and persons
registered as employed with the Association of Austrian Social Insurance Institutions
and comprises all persons seeking work for a given period through the available
