# Prahova: places, data and stories Explore Prahova through projects about its places and county-level data. Then choose a town for its own profile. - Projects covering this county (https://mariuscomper.uk/en/places/county/prahova/#proiecte) - Towns and communes (https://mariuscomper.uk/en/places/county/prahova/#localitati) - Compare two places (https://mariuscomper.uk/en/compare-places/) - Download a county chart (https://mariuscomper.uk/en/reusable-charts/?county=prahova) ## 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. - Which Romanian castle to visit? Bran, Peleș, Corvin: tickets, hours, verdict (https://mariuscomper.uk/castele-de-vizitat/en/) Bran, Peleș, Corvin, Râșnov, Făgăraș, Cantacuzino: adult tickets, official hours, closed days and the best day trip from Brașov, Sibiu or Sinaia, with measured road distances. - The castle that lit up (https://mariuscomper.uk/castelul-peles/en/) Bran said: fortress stone. Hunedoara said: stone and story. Peleș says it differently: the stone tells its architects — Doderer refused, Schultz, Liman — and the light tells its years: 1884 the network, 1897 the station. Climb it phase by phase, in 3D, then grade the legends: the first in Europe, the fungus, Ceaușescu's night, the film interiors. - 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 - Iulia Hasdeu Spiritist Castle (Câmpina) - Peleș Castle - Peleș Castle - Slănic Prahova 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/) | 46.5 years | 2026Half the population registered by domicile is younger, half older. Dwellings with no enumerated residents ↗ (https://mariuscomper.uk/casele-goale/en/) | 25.5% | 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/) | 183 | 2025-26Counts villages in the analysed dataset, not schools or pupils. Periods and definitions differ. Each project explains its source, unit and data limitations. ## Choose your locality România ta profiles bring together nine calculated facts about each locality, with links to their sources. - Adunați (https://mariuscomper.uk/en/places/?loc=131899)Locality profile ↗ (https://mariuscomper.uk/romania-ta/en/l/131899/) -
