A city mayor's average income is slightly more than 9200 euros a month, while a municipal mayor earns on average 6700 euros a month, says the municipal employers union, Kuntatyöantajat (KT).
 
The salary is virtually directly proportional to the population of the area in question.
 
The average age for a mayor (both city and municipal) is just over 53 years, while ages range from 27 to 67. Less than 20% of all mayors are women.
 
The most common education for a mayor is a master's degree in administration.
 
The data comes from Statistics Finland, based on last year's numbers.
