csdata provides structural data for Norway.
Please see https://www.csids.no/csdata/reference/index.html for a quick overview of all available datasets and functions.
Location
Valid locations (and location types) are available in csdata::nor_locations_names(). Uncommon/internal use is demarcated by a line through the text.

Ages
Ages should be coded as characters and should always contain 3 digits. If it is an age range, the two ages are joined by an underscore (e.g. 005_010).
Use 085p instead of >=085 or 85+, as this will allow for an easy conversion from long to wide formatted data.
| Valid ages in the csverse format | ||
| Value | class | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| "000" | character | One year age group (0 year olds) |
| "079" | character | One year age group(79 year olds) |
| "000_004" | character | Age span of 0-4 year olds |
| "065p" | character | Age span of >=65 year olds |
| "missing" | character | Missing/unknown |
| "total" | character | Everyone |
This format will help your data be easily sorted, kept in the right order, and generate valid variable names if converted to wide-format.
Missing ages should be coded as “missing”.
