    This is all an estimate however, right? Seeing as they only do a census every 5 years, I don’t see how this can be anything but. Admittedly the last one would have been only 2022 so the data is pretty recent, but that’s still only a static data point.

      Sure, it’s impossible to know with total accuracy what the true number of people is, but based on census data/birth and death rates/immigration and emigration stats, they’ve got a pretty reliable way of calculating an estimate.
