Modeling Unemployment Duration in Slovenia Using Cox Regression Models. Transition Studies Review 54(1): 145–156, p. 148. ({{langx|sl|podravska statistična regija}}) is a statistical region in Slovenia. The largest city in the region is Maribor. The region's name comes from the Drava River and includes land on both banks along its course through Slovenia as well as the Pohorje mountains in the northeast of the region. The Drava is used for the production of hydroelectricity and the fertile land around it is used for agriculture. The share of job vacancies in all available jobs is among the highest in Slovenia and the region has a positive net migration rate but a very high natural decrease, which means an overall decrease in the population.

Cities and towns

The Drava Statistical Region includes six cities and towns, the largest of which is Maribor.{{Cite web|title=Mesta in urbana območja v Sloveniji|url=https://www.gov.si/teme/mesta-in-urbana-obmocja-v-sloveniji/|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200513094546/https://www.gov.si/teme/mesta-in-urbana-obmocja-v-sloveniji/ |archive-date=2020-05-13 }}
