Settlement

Settlement value is an indicator that shows how many housing units statistically make up a building in a geographical unit. The settlement value helps to distinguish rural from urban regions, which can be deduced in particular from the share of multi-family or multi-party houses in the overall infrastructure, because rural areas are much more strongly characterised by single-family houses, while cities consist almost entirely of multi-party houses.
