Bohol Census of Population 2007

  Days from, people may knock on doors of every home, as census enumerators numbering 513 would be fielded to every nook in the province this August.

  The National Statistics Office (NSO) Bohol Provincial Statistics Officer Jessamyn Anne Alcazaren said 80 team supervisors and 48 census area supervisors complement the census takers or enumerators.

  The 2007 census of population (POPCEN) aims to provide accurate and timely statistics on the country’s population at the smallest demographic area possible, Alcazaren said.

  How do we know if they are who they said they are and not anybody impersonating them to gain easy access on to houses?

  Alcazaren said their enumerators are the people in fuchsia pink umbrellas, black bags with identification cards duly signed by the NSO Administrator Carmelita N. Ericta and with appointment papers signed by herself.

  Updated information on the size of the population would provide the government planners, policy makers and administrators data to base their social and economic development plans and programs, the NSO said.

  The census acts as basis for the determination of Internal revenue Allotment, apportionment of legislative district representatives, creation of new local government units and conversion of LGUs into higher units, it added.

  Over this, we call on all to be counted and we ask the cooperation of everybody to please allow our enumerators to take the 15-30 minutes of your time for the Popcen interview while assuring that every information gathered is treated with confidentiality.

  Alcazaren said this year’s much delayed census which should have been done in 2006 is hoped to confirm the annual population growth rate here which was then pegged at 2.95 during the intercensal period of 1995-2000.

  Growth rate is the rate at which the population is increasing or decreasing in a given year due to natural increase and net migration, expressed as a percentage of the base population, NSO explained.

  Bohol total population in 2000 census on population and housing was 1,239, 130, which increased by 144,690 persons from the earlier 1995 census. The figure is 1/5 of the total regional population, making it the second largest in the region, Bohol NSO said.

  The census in August would also determine if there have been changes in the noted very young population here. Bohol then had a median age of 22, 1 year more than the 21 median age in 1995. This means that half of the population here in 2000 is below 22, which is relatively young.
