Talk:Bridgetown

the population estimate of the metropolitan area of Bridgtown shoul also be stated in the article est (census 2000) at 110,000 persons.

The population estimate is way off -- it was in this article I think from the beginning... *gasp* I haven't come across any new census figures, and the Barbados government is still re-doing a bulk of their websites over. **As a side note** I'm also waiting on those new census figures to put in the templates for each of the parishes of Barbados. None the less, it appears Bridgetown is growing at a rapid pace. The Barbados Tourism Authority claims Bridgetown is I believe at or around 90,000 people. But I think since last elections they did a redistricting of areas (which may? or may not? include re-defining the boundaries of "Bridgetown" too???)

Things aren't really very cleanly defind in Barbados. The problem one has in Barbados is you can be driving along, and then end up exiting one "village" and enter the next and you'd never really know... Also I heard the Barbados Postal Service was saying they were going to roll out a programme of "Zip Codes". Any idea if that came out yet? I was hoping when that's done it will define areas on the island better with an increased sense of clarity. CaribDigita 02:03, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

Actually, as a citizen and resident of Barbados for the past 34 years, the approximate figure given for the city's metro area is acceptable and NOT way off as was suggested.

Part of the Border of Saint James? Bridgetown is???

Are Cave Hill/Black Rock/Warrens etc. now considered a part of Bridgetown?
