I serached ssb to find the rate of astma in Trondheim. It was not possible to find regional figures, so I attempted to use the national statistics. I found a table with different classifications of age, but the numbers where confusing.

Then an article popped up saying that one fifth to one fourth child in norway suffer from astma or similar problems, i.e 20-25%.
