I'm adding the other Scandinavian metro areas with more than 500,000 inhabitants. Note that for Stockholm, the figure is a little smaller than the one given by Swede, because the Swedish population figures are as of Dec. 31 of each year, so the correct figures that must be used to compare with France and Britain should be Dec. 31, 1989 and Dec. 31, 2009, which is what I've used (Stockholm grew much more in 2010 than in 1990, hence the slightly higher growth rate found by Swede).

For Sweden, the metro areas are those officially defined by the Swedish statistical office. For Oslo it is Oslo + 45 suburban municipalities. For Copenhagen it is Hovedstaden Region + 6 municipalities in Sjælland Region. For Helsinki it is Helsinki + 11 suburban municipalities.

Absolute population growth from 1990 to 2010:
- London: +1,763,500 (i.e. the London metro area, which follows the definition of Eurostat's London LUZ, had 1,763,500 more inhabitants in 2010 than in 1990)
- Madrid: +1,751,027
- Paris: +1,203,803
- Barcelona: +832,865

Relative population growth, yearly average from 1990 to 2010:
- Toulouse: +1.63% (i.e. in the 20 years between 1990 and 2010, the Toulouse metro area grew on average by +1.63% every year, which is quite significant over such a long period of 20 years, because it means that in 2010 the Toulouse metro area had 38% more inhabitants than in 1990)
