1Urban settlement: An agglomeration having at least 200 residents and where the distance between houses as a rule does not exceed 50<br />

metres. An urban settlement is delimited independent of administrative boundaries.21n municipalities where more than 50 per cent of the<br />

population live in urban settlements, persons with no registration on urban/rural residence have been considered as inhabitants of the largest<br />

urban settlement within the municipality.3With assignment of codes as in the 1970 census, the population figures of the malor urban settlements<br />

would be: Oslo 649 031, Bergen 181 919, Trondheim 128 159 and Stavanger 91 1 29.4The population figure is probably about<br />

4000 too low.<br />
