    BIK-Type of municipality and BIK-Regions

    In the early 1990s, a revision of the concept of Boustedt-municipalities (bstdt7, bstdt10) seemed in order, because this categorization was based on the census data of 1970. Moreover, an equivalent taxonomy for the area of the new federal states in East Germany was not available. Based on data from the 1987 census, the BIK-Institute Aschpurwis + Behrens therefore developed a revised taxonomy of urban regions for the area of the old federal states (West Germany) – the BIK-type of municipalities and regions (gs05) – which takes into account the changes in residential patterns between the 1970ies and the late 1980ies. For this updated taxonomy, the indicators used to delimit classes have been revised extensively compared to the older Boustedt-system. For the area of the new federal states in East Germany, classification into BIK types of municipalities and regions followed the same principles as for West Germany. However, due to a lack of comparable data, classification proceeded from a different and partly reduced database. Similar to the Boustedt classification, categorization into BIK-regions is based on the number of residents in urban regions (zones 1-3). Outside these urban regions, classification was based on the respective municipality's number of residents (categories 1-4).
    As of 2002, ALLBUS uses the updated BIK-Regions (bik) by 'BIK-Institut Ashpurwis + Behrens', which, for the first time, provide a taxonomy of regions based on a uniform set of data for both East and West Germany. Similar to the 'Boustedt-type of Municipality', classification is first based on the number of residents of a given urban region. Furthermore, this classification distinguishes four different types of region: core areas, conurbation areas, transitional areas and peripheral areas. Outside these urban regions, classification was based on the 'political size of municipality'.

  • Mit der Allgemeinen Bevölkerungsumfrage der Sozialwissenschaften (ALLBUS) werden aktuelle Daten über Einstellungen, Verhaltensweisen und Sozialstruktur der Bevölkerung in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland erhoben. Seit 1980 wird alle zwei Jahre ein repräsentativer Querschnitt der Bevölkerung mit einem teils konstanten, teils variablen Fragenprogramm befragt. Die Daten stehen unmittelbar nach ihrer benutzergerechten Aufbereitung und Dokumentation allen Interessenten für Forschung und Lehre zur Verfügung. (de)
