Notes :  Figures are compiled based on data collected in the General Household Survey from January to December of the year concerned as well as the 
            mid-year population estimates by District Council district compiled jointly by the Census and Statistics Department and an inter-departmental 
            Working Group on Population Distribution Projections.
             Statistics involve the use of the population figures in the compilation process.  Annual figures of 2007-2010 have been revised to take
             into account the results of the 2011 Population Census which provided a benchmark for revising the population figures compiled since 
             the 2006 Population By-census.
