Data Sources: Urban Audit: European Cities
There is a growing demand for an assessment of the quality of life in European cities. The Policy Context for Urban Audit stems from the Commission Communication `Towards an urban agenda in the European Union' (1997), the subsequent discussions, and the publication of the`Sustainable Urban Development : an EU framework for action' (1998) which have identified the need for more information about towns and cities in the EU. The Urban Audit is also part of the process of improving Urban Statistics in the EU.
