Source-attributed country-level indicators for Finland, drawn from the World Bank Development Indicators. Use the cards and table together to compare scale, unit, and data year for each metric.

Country indicators for Finland

VerifiedOfficial dataLast updated 2026-04-08 · data year 2024

How to read these country indicators

Reading guide
  • Country-level, not city-level

    Indicators describe national context. Pair them with city profiles, comparisons, and verified utility layers (emergency, healthcare, transport) for local detail.

  • Source-attributed where available

    Values come from the World Bank Development Indicators. Where no verified record exists, the platform shows a transparent fallback rather than a guessed number.

  • Different indicators, different years

    Each record carries its own data year because publishers refresh indicators on their own cadence. The card and table both display the year alongside the value.

  • Context, not a ranking

    Treat indicators as orientation, not as a leaderboard. The platform never claims any country is best, safest, cleanest, richest, healthiest, or most connected.

  • Read alongside city intelligence

    Country indicators are most useful when combined with the city profiles in the country, the public-safety, healthcare, and transport sections, and the methodology and data-sources pages.

For full construction details, read the methodology page and the data sources registry.

Economic context

National-level economic signals to read alongside city-level cost and services pages.

  • GDP per capita

    Verified
    53,149.77current US$

    Economic context only — not a cost-of-living score or a household-income measure.

    Data year 2024 updated 2026-04-08

  • Unemployment rate

    Verified
    9.46percent

    Modeled ILO labor-market context — not a guarantee of job availability for any specific worker.

    Data year 2025 updated 2026-04-08

Population and urban context

National scale and urbanisation context; pair with city profiles for local detail.

  • Population

    Verified
    5,619,911people

    National scale only — not a city population value or a measure of urban density.

    Data year 2024 updated 2026-04-08

  • Urban population share

    Verified
    74.26percent

    Share of population living in urban areas — not a quality-of-life or urban-form measure.

    Data year 2024 updated 2026-04-08

Digital access context

Connectivity context drawn from World Bank usage and subscription indicators.

  • Internet usage

    Verified
    93.72percent

    Share of population that uses the internet — not a measure of connection speed or quality.

    Data year 2024 updated 2026-04-08

  • Fixed broadband subscriptions

    Verified
    36.48per 100 people

    Fixed broadband subscriptions per 100 people — not a measure of overall internet quality or speed.

    Data year 2024 updated 2026-04-08

Health context

National health-system context; not a substitute for verified city-level healthcare layers.

  • Life expectancy

    Verified
    82.34years

    National health-context indicator — not individual health guidance.

    Data year 2024 updated 2026-04-08

  • Health expenditure per capita

    Verified
    5,515.4current US$

    Per-capita spending context — not a measure of healthcare quality or access for any individual.

    Data year 2023 updated 2026-04-08

Environment context

National emissions context; read separately from city-level air-quality data.

  • CO₂ emissions per capita
