Coventry's population growth

A few more statistics for you Pixrobin. From the book "Coventry the development plan 1951" Published by the Coventry City Council

Wow! Wow! and Wow! again. Thank you Anniewiggy. I didn't even know such figures existing except maybe in the deep dungeons of council offices.

Just a thought. With the need for more housing in Coventry is that because of the growth of the city's student population. Does anyone know the current number of students at the two universities.

This page indicates 30,000 students at the two city universities, though some will be locals living at home, and some at Warwick will be living outside the city boundary. There is some discussion of the reasons for recent population changes at this link (pdf).
