The figures don’t add up, possibly because they were computed on a different date from the original census, but they give a rough idea. We can now add about 20-25% to these figures anyway, the growth mainly being in new residents from the European community.

N. B. The population of ONDARA in 2001 was 6,437 inhabitants.
Do we want Parcent to grow as big as that ... or more?
