Source and definitions
Where these numbers come from. They are copied from a map published by ImfoScope, which cites the Minority Studies Institute of the Centre for Social Sciences and the University of Miskolc. We could not find the original table, so the year and method are unconfirmed, and no national figure is shown. Unlike the other maps in this series, this one is not built directly from an official file.
Not comparable with the census. Hungarian schools do not record a pupil's ethnicity officially, so figures like these are normally estimates, not self-declared counts like Slovakia's census map. These are shares of children in school, a younger group than the whole population, so expect them to run higher than population shares. An earlier estimate, based on teachers' reports and reported in 2015, showed the same pattern: Nógrád 34.3%, Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén 32.8%, Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg 28.7%, Győr-Moson-Sopron 4.2%.
