I am interested in the population of the town where you live. I live in a town of 9,000 or so. Quite a change from living in a community of 22,000 a year ago.
SO what about your town? Or maybe you live in the country? The nearest town?

If i'm at my mom's...I'm in the CITY of Menasha...that's about 15,000 people...the TOWN of Menasha (where my dad used to live) was also 15,000 people (don't ask...its a screwed up boundary!) My dad now lives in the Town of Harrison...I don't know the population. As for the location of Menasha...Menasha is a southern suburb of Appleton (70,000 people) total up all the Valley population (Neenah (city and town), Menasha (city and town), Appleton, Kaukauna, Kimberly, Darboy, Greenville, Hortonville, Little Chute, Combined Locks, Town of Harrison, etc) you get about 125,000 people
As for Green Bay...its about 225,000 people (including the suburbs of DePere, Allouez, Ashwaubenon, Bellevue, Howard, etc)

Fulltime population of Key West is 25,000. I lived in a small town in Arizona years ago with a population of 10,000. Like the small places. Done with the big city!

Well, I can't find anything on their website about how many people live here. But the town is only about 2 sq. miles big.No hi-rises. A couple of apt. complexes the rest are single family homes. So whatever you can fit into that.If there are 5,000
I would be very surprised.

What would be the best way to find out your area's population count?
I would think possibly by using a Search Engine and from there how specific in the data field box do you go?
Thank you,
Eric

As of Friday, June 30, 2000 the (retirement) community I live in now; in central Florida had 23,000 residents and is growing extremely rapidly. (I was living here for 25 days on June 30, 2000. This is also the day I got my computer here in Florida, a matter of fact) - I believe the goal is to have 220,000 residents by 2030.
Bridgewater, Massachusetts {where I grew up} in the southeastern portion of the state had over 30,000 residents and was still growing. Many people are moving out of the city of Boston and surrounding [suburban] cities into such towns as Bridgewater.
