What is Population without double counting?
'''Population sans doubles comptes''' is a phrase in French that means '''population without double counting''' in English. In France, because of the [[census]], the [[INSEE]] has allowed people who live in one place and study in a different place to be counted twice, so as to show how the [[population]] moves. Because of this, each commune in [[France]] has many numbers of how many people live in it. For example, students may be counted where they study and where they live but do not study (the place they were born in). It is just like allowing students in the [[United States]] to vote in the town election of the place they are studying in and the town election where they were born. == Types of population counts== * ''Population municipale'': people that live in that place * ''Population comptée à part'': people are there for a while, but not forever (soldiers, prisoners) * ''Population totale'': ''population municipale'' + ''population comptée à part'' * ''Doubles comptes'': part of Population comptée à part, which are people working or studying (students, soldiers) there and are counted in another town's Population municipale * ''Population sans doubles comptes'': ''population totale'' - ''doubles comptes''<ref name=R2151>{{citation |chapter-url=http://www.easydroit.fr/codes-et-lois/TITRE-V-POPULATION-DE-LA-COMMUNE-R-du-Code-general-des-collectivites-territoriales/S45094/ |chapter=POPULATION DE LA COMMUNE |title=Code géneral des collectives territorials |accessdate=2010-02-14 |language=French }}</ref> ==Notes and references== {{reflist}} == More reading == * {{citation |url=http://www.recensement.insee.fr/FR/RUB_MOT/ACC_MOT.htm |title=Les définitions officielles sur le site de l'INSEE |language=French |access-date=2010-02-15 |archive-date=2007-11-02 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071102085540/http://www.recensement.insee.fr/FR/RUB_MOT/ACC_MOT.htm |url-status=dead }} The official meanings on the INSEE site * {{citation |url=http://www.insee.fr/fr/ppp/sommaire/imeths01.htm |title=Pour comprendre
