Population Explosion

I came across some interesting statistics about the island the other day. The current and past population figures.

These are only for the island proper and do not include the area called Isla Mujeres on the mainland, which is our "suburb". So, the figures are......

1900................651

1980................4700

1990................10,666

2000...............11,313

2005...............13,315

2010...............12,642


I think the decline in the actual island population can be explained by so many families moving over to cheap land on the mainland. Either way, interested figures.
