NUTS-3 AT335 · Austria
Tiroler Unterland
Tiroler Unterland generates €15bn of GDP across 267.7k residents. Its Opportunity Index of 62.9/100 puts it in the upper quartile of EU regions, led by economic scale and livability. Its economy has grown +5.0%/yr over five years and accelerating, with the employment rate up 4.0pp. On quality of life it ranks strongest for economy (91th EU percentile) and weakest for safety (42th).
Long-run trajectory · EU percentile of real GDP per head, 1995–2024
Enduring leader80 → 88 EU percentile since 1995 (+8 ranks)
Yearly EU-wide percentile of real GDP per head (ARDECO regional accounts, constant 2020 prices, derived over population). 50 = the EU median that year; percentiles are scale-free, so decades are directly comparable. See the backtest for what long-run prosperity ranks do — and don't — anticipate.
