What's your cities population?

    Actually, I wouldn't consider using the town (what I use for my mailing) population for where I live. The town is made up of a village, farmland and small communities. I live in one of the small communities. We are too small to have our own mailing address and so it is a rural address. Our population is probably somewhere around 200. That's the only figure that I could find anyway.

    Newberg has about 20,000.I would say we are roughly 20% Hispanic, 75% white and 5% all others.

    My impression is definitely small town...in the boons.
     
    Zip code population (2000): 1,951
    Estimated population in 2005: 1,969

    Yekooche First Nation, BC  population 120
     
    that is actually an inflated estimate, more like 70-80.  I consider it a village. 
     
    I've been lurking lately but had to answer this one as I think I might be the smallest.  Can anyone beat me?

    [:D]  ...thanks for the chuckle...me thinks we live in a Village, as well.  We've got a post office, and a dinky town hall located in part of an elementary school.

    Mililani, HI 28,000.  That seems like a big number! But, it's part of Honolulu which is at 372,000.
     
    I cannot even imagine living somewhere there are less than 200 people!  How cool would that be?!  ... do you ever have a big party and EVERYONE goes to it? [:D]

    I'm having a hard time finding it, because the name of the township I live in is also the name of a county in PA, but not the county I live in. So, when I type the name of the town, I get the county. Apparently, there is also another county with a township by the same name. When I finally did find my township, the population lists as 38,572. My city also isn't listed, and instead it lists Village Shires, which is actually the name of some of the housing developments. The other two cities listed definitely are not the ones I live in, and I really can't tell if it just lumps all of us who aren't in one of the other two cities into Village Shires. Interestingly, the populations of the cities listed do not add up to the population for the entire township, so I am lead to believe that Village Shires really only includes those people in the Village Shires housing developments, and not those of us who don't live in those developments.

    Cleveland, TX  as of 2000- pop 8,387
     
    I live outside of Cleveland in the boonies.  No city hall, & no post office here.  To put it into perspective, we didn't have 911 service until last year.

    TAOofGoldyShep, you've got me beat having a post office and all.  The only thing we have is the elementary school where I teach.  There isn't even a place to buy milk.  You have to travel 1.5 hours to get to a store.
     
    Sera_J, the whole village came out for the Christmas party.  Other than that, no, not everyone goes to a party.  The village is really divided up into families (think clans) and they don't all get along.  Not to mention the fact that I'd lose my job if I went out drinking with any of our community members.[:)]

    I have not been on in forever and a day, but as my summer starts in 2 weeks I get to start posting again. This seems like a good place to start..........
     
    A couple of people here have me beat. Our population out here in the middle of no-where is 348 people. Barely even a village!!! The last place we lived (also in the same county) only had 52 people. I soooo understand driving a long distance for groceries.

    It's like 8 miles to everywhere here...8 to the post office, 8 to the grocery store & gas station in completely the other direction, 8 to the dump probably, lol, etc.  The mall and other big stores are about an hour away in two different directions.
     
    I found this info to be interesting, too:
    Land area: 20.7 sq. mi.
    Water area: 0.4 sq. mi.
    Population density: 95 people per square mile
     
    The town we moved from did not have a post office...but did have a town hall, school, and recycling center...and way more residents (approx 4,000).

    this sounds like where i grew up. the boonies! [:D]

    when there were mom&;pop type stores in the closest town where you could buy clothes and necessities other than just groceries, it was a great place to live. now most of those places are gone. it is kind of desolate out there now.

    Olathe, KS - technically part of the Kansas City suburbs.  Its a city but it doesn't feel like it most days.  We pass cows and horses on our walks.
