Projections of Population Distribution, 2007-2016

GENERAL NOTES :

  1. The Working Group on Population Distribution Projections (WGPD) in December 2007 completed the compilation of the projections of population distribution for 2007-2016, which adopted the Census and Statistics Department's latest projections of territorial population released in July 2007 as the control totals. 

  2. Forecast housing supply data adopted by the projections have taken into account all planning information of housing development proposals that were available up to end-June 2007 and other assumptions. 

  3. The WGPD compiles projected distributions of population by District Council District (DCD), New Town, as well as Tertiary Planning Unit (TPU). In addition, the projected age structures of population in individual DCDs and New Towns are also compiled. 

  4. The detailed results of the population distribution projections for 2007-2016 are published in the report entitled "Projections of Population Distribution, 2007-2016". Free download version of the report in PDF format is available (English version, Bilingual version). Besides, free download version of the statistical tables inside the report in Excel format is also available (English version, Bilingual version).
      

DISCLAIMER

Many detailed working assumptions are involved in compiling the projections; changes to which may yield very different results. Although the WGPD has endeavoured to adopt the best assumptions and data sources available at the time of producing the projections, users should decide on the applicability of the projections data to any specific purposes and uses. The Government is not to be held liable for any consequences arising from the data and information being improperly used.
