Stavanger in Numbers The following diagram shows the current distribution of land use within Stavanger: Housing “Trehusbyen” City centre Industry and commerce Transformation areas Public buildings Public outdoor recreation Agriculture and nature Transport Other Approximately a third is housing. Just about one half is not built up and includes farmland, natural and recreational areas. However, it should be noted that many of Stavanger’s inhabitants work outside the city limits and that municipalities in the region are in practice one market for employment, housing and commerce. Right: Growth is distributed unevenly between the individual districts STAVANGER IN NUMBERS 16

At the other end of the scale are agriculture, forestry and fishing (“Agriculture etc.”). People from Stavanger are often called “siddiser”, probably a Norwegian version of the English citizen, originating in the shipping era. At present, 12.5% of the inhabitants are immigrants. The above diagram indicates where these 15 000 new “siddiser” come from. The largest 20 groups are specified, but over 130 other nationalities are included in “Others”.
