hi ginger,
the current Australian population is approx 20,800,000. and Melbourne's population is approx 3,700,000. i got this info from the Australian Bureau of Statistics: [url="http://www.abs.gov.au"]http://www.abs.gov.au[/url]

No way people can figure out the exact population especially when people travel here and don't return back home or don't register births. Doubt people are keeping track of deaths and could be years before someone finds them dead. Many reasons why these numbers are flawed... Estimates are better than nothing. Estimated resident population in Melbourne (June, 2006) Population in 1996: 3 283 278 Population in 2006: 3 684 461

hi sherwin, you are quite right that many people move around a lot.
the ABS only run a census every once in a while. oh well. an estimate is better than nothing <img src='http://www.melbournechat.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> cheers, glen
