title: [Life conditions of families with children in the Municipality of Copenhagen. 2. Life conditions distributed in social districts].
abstract: As the basic knowledge for possible health planning in smaller districts, a description was made of the basic living conditions of families with children in Copenhagen and the utilization of public assistance and the employment of hospitalization of the children. These parameters are distributed among the 20 social districts in the municipality. The material concerning the more than 36,000 families was obtained by means of combination of data from registers concerning the population of Copenhagen. Four indicators were chosen for the living conditions of the families with children and by means of an additive index the social districts were ranged as good/poor as regards stressed families with children. Considerable variation was shown between the districts. A markedly positive connection was found between the living condition index of a district and cash public assistance. The living condition index was less clearly associated with the frequencies of hospitalization of the children. Utilization of existing registers in district planning is discussed.
