It does not relate to municipal government boundaries and its territorial extent is defined by the General Register Office for Scotland, which determines settlements in Scotland for census and statistical purposes. Greater Glasgow had a population of 1,199,629 at the 2001 census〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Key Statistics for Settlements and Localities Scotland )〕 making it the largest urban area in Scotland and the fifth largest in the United Kingdom.〔(The UK’s major urban areas ) Office for National Statistics, 2005〕 A more extensive Greater Glasgow concept covers a much larger area, and may include Ayrshire down to Ayr as well as the whole of Lanarkshire down to Lanark, Dunbartonshire, Renfrewshire and Inverclyde, with a population of over 2 million: Stirlingshire might also be included as it was a part of The Strathclyde Regional Council Area centred on Glasgow and with a population of 2.5 million. At present the Glasgow and Clyde City Region consists of the Glasgow City Council Local Authority, Lanarkshire, Dumbartonshire, Renfrew and Inverclyde, with a combined population of over 1.7 million. This city-region is described as a metropolitan area by its own strategic planning authority, and is similar to the Glasgow metropolitan area identified by the European Union. The City of Glasgow in the late 19th and early 20th centuries grew to over a million people, becoming on enlargement in 1912 the seventh city in Europe to reach one million, after London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, St Petersburg and Moscow. The official population stayed over a million for 50 years.〔()〕 However, since the 1960s successive boundary changes and large-scale relocation to suburban districts and new towns have reduced the population of the City of Glasgow council area to 593,245 at the 2011 Census. ==Greater Glasgow urban area== The Urban Area, also known as the Glasgow settlement, includes the following localities: 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Greater Glasgow」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
