## What you can explore here

- The Empty House — 1 in 4 Dwellings Stands Empty (https://mariuscomper.uk/casele-goale/en/)

The 2021 Census counts 2.53 million unoccupied dwellings — 25.5% of the housing stock. In Mehedinți 36.3% are empty. County map, breakdown and why the rural empty stock does not solve city rents.

- 100 places in Romania you won't find anywhere else in the world (https://mariuscomper.uk/o-suta-de-locuri-unice/en/)

An interactive bilingual atlas of 100 singular places, natural anomalies, ice caves, archaic relics, and unique engineering in Romania with map and documented cards.

- Romania Salt Mines: Turda, Praid, Slanic or Cacica? Prices, Hours, Verdict (https://mariuscomper.uk/saline/en/)

Which Romanian salt mine is worth it? 2026 prices and hours for Turda, Praid, Slanic Prahova and Cacica, depth, temperature, what's inside each, and a verdict per traveler. Praid is temporarily closed.

- Romanian villages left without a school, 2013–2026 (https://mariuscomper.uk/trei-din-patru/en/)

Of 6,833 villages with a school on the Ministry of Education's 2013–14 list, 1,329 have none in 2025–26. A map of every village over 13 years, and why the official count of rural schools (−76%) does not mean as many schools closed.

- How old is your town? (https://mariuscomper.uk/varsta-localitatii/en/)

The median age of each of Romania’s 3,181 localities, computed from the registered population by single year of age (INS, POP107D), on a map with every real boundary. Search your locality, see how old it is against the country and the county, its age fingerprint in one hundred squares, its pyramid by sex and its path from 1992 to 2026. In 528 localities there are now more registered people aged 80 or over than children under 10; in 1992 there were 9.

## Places documented in the projects

- Turda Gorge

- Turda Salt Mine

## What the county data measures

Measure | Value | Period and meaning

Median age of the population by domicile ↗ (https://mariuscomper.uk/varsta-localitatii/en/) | 44.2 years | 2026Half the population registered by domicile is younger, half older.

Dwellings with no enumerated residents ↗ (https://mariuscomper.uk/casele-goale/en/) | 23.1% | 2021 censusOf conventional dwellings. This does not establish abandonment or availability.

Geocoded villages with a listed school structure ↗ (https://mariuscomper.uk/trei-din-patru/en/) | 133 | 2025-26Counts villages in the analysed dataset, not schools or pupils.

Periods and definitions differ. Each project explains its source, unit and data limitations.
