I.—AREA AND POPULATION.
The District consists of eight parishes, and the total
area is 21,001 acres. The largest Parish is Coulsdon,
with 4,314 acres, and the smallest Wallington, with
823 acres.
In the year 1901, at the time of the last Census, the
population was 38,071, but omitting the three large
institutions, viz.:—The Cane Hill Asylum, the Holborn
Workhouse, and the Holborn Schools, the total
population was 34,180, of which number 16,202 were
males and 17,978 were females.
At the middle of 1910 the population was estimated
to be 07,963, but, omitting all institutions, the corrected
number was 63,600, of which number 30,010 were
males and 33,590 were females.
The number of inhabitants in the three large
institutions has increased from 2,468 in 1891 to 3,529
in 1910. There has been, however, a decrease of 35
since the middle of 1909.
