| | + | === Russian, Iceland, Switzerlan and Finland indoor toilet statistics === |
| | + | |
| | + | '''Russia''', with an estimated population of approximately 146.4 million people in 2023, has about 89% of its population with access to improved sanitation facilities. This means that roughly 16.1 million people are estimated to lack access to improved sanitation. |
| | + | |
| | + | '''Iceland''' has an estimated population of about 376,248 people and an improved sanitation access rate of 99%. As a result, only around 3,762 people are estimated to be without access. |
| | + | |
| | + | '''Switzerland''', with an estimated population of approximately 8.79 million people, has achieved 100% access to improved sanitation according to the data shown. This corresponds to effectively no people lacking access to improved sanitation facilities. |
| | + | |
| | + | '''Finland''' has an estimated population of about 5.55 million people and an improved sanitation access rate of 99%. Despite the high percentage, approximately 55,455 people are still estimated to be without access due to the country's larger population. |

| | + | === Russian, Iceland, Switzerland and Finland road statistics === |
| | + | |
| | + | Road network statistics vary greatly between countries. |
| | + | |
| | + | '''Russia''' has the largest road network among the countries listed, with approximately 1.58 million kilometers of roads, of which about 1.12 million kilometers are paved and 455,000 kilometers are unpaved. Despite its extensive road system, Russia's road density is relatively low at about 9 kilometers of road per 1,000 square kilometers of territory (2023 data). |
| | + | |
| | + | '''Iceland''' has approximately 12,900 kilometers of roads, including around 7,300 kilometers of paved roads and 5,600 kilometers of unpaved roads. Its road density is approximately 129 kilometers per 1,000 square kilometers, which is considered high (2025 data). |
| | + | |
| | + | '''Switzerland''' has an estimated road network length of about 71,454 kilometers. Virtually all of these roads are paved, resulting in no significant unpaved road network. Due to the country's small size and dense transportation infrastructure, Switzerland has a very high road density of roughly 1,711 kilometers per 1,000 square kilometers (2021 data). |
| | + | |
| | + | '''Finland''' has an estimated 425,000 kilometers of roads. Approximately 260,000 kilometers are paved and about 165,000 kilometers are unpaved. The country's road density is approximately 124 kilometers per 1,000 square kilometers, which is considered high (2023 data).
