The delineation of urban regions is based on a statistical method applied to data from the 2021 Census and to the municipal boundaries in force on 1 January 2025.
Urban regions are defined as the combination of the main urban pole (morphological agglomeration) and the suburban area (functional periphery). Each urban region is associated with a residential commuting zone.

La délimitation des régions urbaines repose sur une méthode statistique appliquée aux données issues du Census 2021 ; au découpage communal en vigueur au 1er janvier 2025.
Les régions urbaines sont définies comme l’association du pôle urbain majeur (agglomération morphologique) et de la banlieue (périphérie fonctionnelle). À chaque région urbaine est associée une zone résidentielle des migrants alternants. 
Le jeu de données résulte d’un traitement de sélection, d’harmonisation et de mise en forme des communes appartenant à une région urbaine selon cette méthodologie, avec intégration des limites communales 2025.</gmd:LocalisedCharacterString>

De afbakening van stedelijke regio’s is gebaseerd op een statistische methode toegepast op gegevens uit de Census 2021 en op de gemeentelijke indeling die geldt op 1 januari 2025.
Stadsgewesten worden gedefinieerd als de combinatie van de grote stedelijke pool (morfologische agglomeratie) en de banlieue (functionele periferie). Aan elke stedelijke regio is een forensenwoonzone gekoppeld.
De dataset is het resultaat van selectie-, harmonisatie- en verwerkingsstappen van gemeenten die volgens deze methodologie tot een stedelijke regio behoren, met integratie van de gemeentelijke grenzen van 2025.</gmd:LocalisedCharacterString>
