Statistics about the Czech Republic
This article lists sources for statistics about Czech Republic.
Czech Statistical Office
Czech Statistical Office 1 (Czech: Český statistický úřad) is state institution responsible to provide official data about Czech Republic. Among others they include number of inhabitants, age structure, employment, inflation rate, foreign trade and other macro- and micro-economic statistics. Historical data are provided, including graphs, as well as trends analysis.
The information is available in Czech and English language, some data is available for free.
The Office is probably the most authoritative and up-to-date source of data (although it made and then corrected a few large mistakes with macroeconomic statistics).
Websites of regions and cities
