Answer:
Good question! My understanding is our overall population is now approximately 12,800 in total. The current Town limits, Ward 4, is around 5600, and each of the other Wards, 1,2,3 and 5 have approximately 1600-2000 in population each. The 2026 Census will give us a more accurate representation today, which with the large number of newcomers we've welcomed since Covid, I expect it to be higher.
