The municipality of Birkerød covered an area of 34 square kilometres (13 square miles), and had a total population of 21,930 (2005). It merged with Søllerød Municipality to form the new Rudersdal municipality. This created a municipality with an area of 73 square kilometres (28 square miles) and a total population of 53,621 (2005). The new municipality belongs to the new Region Hovedstaden ("Capital Region").
