Demographic throwback
held in early February the Bulgarian population census, which I also had the opportunity to make their small, brick, causing more work for pollsters.
On 6 April newspaper Trud described some of the results. It turned out that at present Bulgaria resides 7.351234 million. In 1985 there were 8.948649 million. Over the past 10 years, 581,750 people disappeared. This means that in 2011 Bulgaria's population is less than in 1956, when the country was inhabited 7.613709 million.
The cause of demographic decline is enormous emigration and low birth rates.
is also changing distribution of people across the country. Still in the Bulgarian villages depopulated. Currently, 186 villages have not a single inhabitant! Living in 427 villages of no more than 10 people. Villages where there are between 11 and 50 people are up to the 703rd
depopulated city is also smaller. In February 2011 he was the smallest town of Melnik, Bulgaria - had only 208 inhabitants, and it lived before the age of 30 thousand people! The first capital of Bulgaria - Pliska today is inhabited by 894 people. A total of 72.9% of the population lives in cities and 27.1% in rural areas. Comes for this population in large cities. Here's a list of 10 largest population centers in Bulgaria: Sofia
- 1 270 284
Plovdiv - 331 796
Varna - Burgas
330 486 - 197 301
