I. VITAL STATISTICS.
The Borough of Lambeth contains 4079.6 statute acres,
exclusive of 82.1 tidal water, 0.8 inland water, and 31.8
foreshore, with an estimated total population of 327074
persons to the middle of 1910, consisting of 154870 males
and 172204 females, or an excess of 17334 females.
The total estimated increase (1909.10) of the population
is 2886, but the "natural increment," i.e., the excess of
births over deaths (uncorrected) is 4025, so that an exodus
of 1139 in excess of those who came into the Borough
during 1.910 must be assumed.
The estimated Populations of the Borough of Lambeth
to the middle of 1910 may be tabulated as follow:—
