| Notes: From 2000 onwards, a new survey method by using remote sensing technology and a new classification of land uses have been adopted. |
| The results of the survey provide a set of more detailed land uses, particularly in the rural non-built-up areas. Hence, figures presented |
| above are not strictly comparable with those for years 1999 and before. |
| Figures are as at December of the year. |
| 嘆Residential land developed by private developers except village houses, Home Ownership Scheme (HOS)/Private Sector Participation |
| Scheme (PSPS) and temporary housing areas. |
| Include HOS/PSPS and temporary housing areas. |
| Include temporary structures. |
| Include open storage areas. |
| Include parks, stadiums and playgrounds. |
