The population figures of the agglomerations are computed according to an own definition using the population of communes which are taken from:
(1995) Amtliche Schlüsselnummern und Bevölkerungsdaten der Gemeinden und Verwaltungsbezirke in der BR Deutschland, Ausgabe 1995.
(2001) (2005) (2008) Statistisches Bundesamt Deutschland: Gemeindeverzeichnis (web).
