New Geo: Luxembourg - Metro area
Friday, 26 Jan 2018 14:05 ET
By Elizabeth Fitts
Summary
January 2018 -- We have defined one global metro area for Luxembourg, based on the Eurostat NUTS 2010 and NUTS 2013 definitions.
Detail

Eurostat defines a metropolitan region as an aggregate of one or more contiguous NUTS 3 areas that represents an agglomeration of at least 250,000 inhabitants and includes the commuter belt around a city.

Luxembourg contains only one NUTS 3 area (which is conterminous with the country), so it can have only one metro area (which is also conterminous with the country). Geo codes for Moody's Analytics global metro areas have the pattern I^^^_M^^^.
