ⓘ Data note (district row totals vs. stated county total): The 20 individual district rows in the LISGIS 2022 table sum to 133,671 (M: 70,255 / F: 63,416), while the table footer states the county total as 151,149 (M: 79,362 / F: 71,787). The difference of 17,478 is not accounted for by the published district-level rows and may reflect an unpublished sub-district population component, rounding differences across enumeration areas, or a data entry gap at source. The individual district figures are used as published; the stated county total of 151,149 is the authoritative LISGIS figure and is used in the county-level statistics throughout this page. Note also: the district named Kran in the table is referred to as Krah in the county introduction — both names refer to the same district.
