Notes:
1) Ergebnis des Mikrozensus. Personen im Alter von 15 Jahren und mehr. Aus Geheimhaltungsgründen werden niedrige Fallzahlen bei den einzelnen Altersgruppen nicht ausgewiesen. Die Daten zu den einzelnen Schulabschlüssen können daher leicht höher sein, als in dieser Tabelle ausgewiesen (siehe Quelle).
2) Für 2025 vorläufige Daten.
3) Einschließlich Personen mit Abschluss nach höchstens sieben Jahren Schulbesuch.
- = Keine Daten auszuweisen oder 0.
u = Kein Aussagewert, da der Zahlenwert statistisch unsicher ist.
