Dear Statistics Korea team, I was looking for detailed population information regarding villages (리) in South Korea. I was able to find excellent population information regarding the administrative submunicipal divisions of town (읍) and rural township (면). However, within these towns (읍) and especially townships (면) there seem to be many small villages (리) for which I could not find any population numbers. Thus, my inquiry is if such detailed population numbers for all the villages (리) in South Korea is even available or if the government does not collect any more specific data beyond the town (읍) and township (면) level? Thank you very much for your efforts! Kindest regards, Bjoern Buchli

Dear Bjoern Buchli, Thank you for visiting the KOSIS website. According to the Population Census Division of Statistics Korea in charge of carrying out the Population Census, further detailed information on the population in 리 regions is not provided to the general statistical users.
