Note:
The term proportion of independent sources of revenue refers to the percentage of annual expenditure comprising independent sources of
revenue (including local taxes, charges and assessments, licensing fees, and service charges), which are to a certain degree controlled by
each municipality. In contrast to independent sources of revenue are dependent sources of revenue (tax revenues allocated by the central
government to municipalities, expenditures by the central government, tax transfers, and municipal bonds), which are controlled by the
central government.
UES means “urban economic spheres”.
