As in recent years, the number was driven by immigration, mainly from Ukraine and Slovakia.

More people were born than died during the first nine months of 2019, but both of the figures were lower than in the same period last year.

The number of Prague citizens increased by 10.056 to 1.319 million, CZSO said on December 12.
