 I was just sitting here staring at the computer screen and wondering how many people live here.
I need to turn the radio on.
Anyway -what's the population of where you live?
As of 2010 it was 1,900 in Lawton, Michigan.. (which was ten years ago-I can understand why they don't-because no one fills them out.)

Close to 100,000 in Beaverton, OR.  Probably just shy of that.  Good-sized city with everything I need (theaters, stores, restaurants, etc.) in semi-close reach; just kind of sucks that transportation isn't great late at night when I get off work-- I still gotta walk a couple miles from where the bus can drop me off.  Ah well, I love the house I got and although I put a lot of money in restoring/updating it I got it for a great deal.  Neighbors I don't have to talk to and don't hear commotion from them.  Cops crowd my street and are generally d*cks but they haven't annoyed me in a long time.

As of Dec 31, 2008 our town's population is 13,369. We have a McDonalds and there's a Burger King in the outskirts near the Autobahn. We also have six Doner kebab places (it's one of the most popular street foods in Germany), one Greek restaurant, four Asian restaurants, two Italian restaurants, one semi-Indian restaurant and three restaurants with local/German cuisine. Once a week a food truck pulls up offering grilled chicken and bavarian style pork knuckles. There used to be a movie theater (!) but it closed in the 1970s.

We have a few old school butchers and bakeries. Most oddly, we have at least five hearing aid stores and housing for blind people (never knew we had blind people in our town). Worth mentioning: our town is famous for carp breeding.

Last year a large shopping center was launched with 700 parking spaces, which is a huge draw. For a small town our town is quite busy.

Funny story, where we live was always called a village, but when the population surpassed that of a village as defined by law, 5,000, I think, the new city changed its name and added "The village of...." in front of its name. That there's stubbornness!

I live just outside of town, but Greenville has an official population of around 27,000.

Given the number of new neighborhoods going up, I think we're probably closer to 30,000.
And we are an hour from Dallas, which has about 1 million or so.

Sort of hard to say. Our local metro government redefined the city boundaries so that they are the same as the county. So I'm technically a resident of Louisville, population 1,297,310. As a practical matter, I'm way out in the suburbs, right on the county line. I'd say the nearest town is really about 8,000.

Dubuque itself has about 58,000 people.  Another 35,000 live in Dubuque county.  So in what is officially the Dubuque metro area there are about 93,000 people.   

About another 100,000 people live in Grant County, Wisconsin, Jackson County, Iowa, and Jo Daviess County, Illinois - which is the unofficial area.  If those are counted it gets up close to 200,000.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
