If you also need the value in your select-list, you can just repeat the subselect there, usually the planner is smart enough to figure out that it can just re-use the result. select short_name_en from stats_residence where (select sum(statcount) from stats_residence) >some_number; -- If you can't see the forest for the trees, Cut the trees and you'll see there is no forest.
