RP2021 N°15- Education level of the Luxembourg population:
sustained, contrasting growth depending on originA key indicator of human development and socioeconomic progress, the level of education of the resident population has risen rapidly over the intercensal period 2011-2021: almost half (48.3%) of adults under 40 have studied (28% of whom have a Master's degree or higher). These changes conceal differences between Luxembourg-born and foreignborn people, major inequalities between immigrants according to their national origin, between "golden immigration" and immigration for low-skilled work, and also major generational disparities. These inequalities in qualifications are a feature of Luxembourg's territory, as they accompany the effects of centrality that set the most economically active areas, close to the capital, against the more remote communes, particularly in the northern half of the country, but also in the post-industrial south.
