Births, deaths and moves are CBS's, from the population register. A municipality's migration counts moves from other municipalities and from abroad, with administrative corrections; the Netherlands' counts moves to and from abroad only. Homes finished are dwellings added by new building: from the buildings register since 2015, and for the Netherlands from CBS's stock accounts since 1926. A home houses a household, not a person: two or three new residents per new home is roughly one home per new household.
