The Population of Sofia is Almost 2 Million People
46 of all 257 cities and towns in Bulgaria increased their population last year, and only five of them are regional centers
The census taking of the Bulgarian population will be performed in January 2011, instead of March 2011.
The Bulgarian Interior Minister Tsvetan Tsvetanov has suggested the change of the date for the census.
According to him, the goal is for the results to be recorded in the Electoral Code, which is prepared by the government for the regionalization of the mandates in future elections.
“I just talked to the Director of the National Statistics Institute (NSI) and she confirmed that it is technically possible to change the date of the census to January,” the Bulgarian Finance Minister Simeon Djankov said.
From September 1-14, 2010 NSI will perform a sample census in the Bulgarian cities of Pleven, Veliko Tarnovo and Stara Zagora, in order to to test the developed tools and the operation.
The last census of the population in Bulgaria was in 2001 when 7 928 901 people lived in Bulgaria.
