!!!Grenzgebiete

Border Regions (Grenzgebiete): political districts along the national 
border or in the immediate vicinity thereof, so defined by the  OeROK 
(Oesterreichische Raumordnungskonferenz). They cover about 51 % 
of the surface area of Austria and are home to about 36 % of the 
population. Border Regions in Austria are very diverse: in the eastern 
provinces they are limited to peripheral regions, in the western 
provinces they also include centrally located areas.
