Who is covered by benefits and services?

How to read this review

The map shows published figures for the selected measurement and period, not a rating of the county. Open a county for the definition, snapshot date and original source.

Unknown is not zero.

Persons covered by ZMN at year-end. With no year selected, the view shows the 31 December 2025 snapshot; the year-end 2024 snapshot is also available. This is not an annual recipient total or a count of benefit cases or households.

Count of ZMN benefit cases for single persons and households as at 31 December 2024 — not a separate household count, a count of persons or a payment value. This packet has no 2025 observations for this metric.

Persons with recognized parent-carer status at the end of 2024. County-area count, not a payment amount or an outcome of the county budget.

Persons with recognized other-carer status at the end of 2024, separate from parent carers. A person count is not a benefit amount.

Day-care service users during the whole of 2024 — an annual count, not a 31 December snapshot. Not added to other services or benefits.

Users of accommodation at other providers at the end of 2024; foster families are shown separately. Users are not vacancies or service capacity.

Supported-living users at the end of 2024. The published county aggregate does not identify addresses or vacancies.

Persons placed with foster families at the end of 2024. County aggregates only, with no names or addresses of users or families.

Children covered by the June 2026 allowance (payment in July). Not a parent count, annual unique-recipient count or payment amount.

National elderly-allowance recipients for June 2026 (payment in July). This is not a pension or ZMN, and the recipient count is not an amount paid.

Unemployment-benefit recipients in August 2026. Not an annual person count or the total number of unemployed people.

This review has limits. Each measure keeps its own period: annual day care is not a year-end snapshot, and a monthly benefit is not an annual total. Persons, benefit cases and different services are not added. County counts are not attributed to a city or municipality. Counts are not payments, vacancies or corruption ratings. Unreconciled inclusive-allowance and home-help totals are withheld from the map.
