<br />Notes and Sources:
<br />'The Population figures for 1980, 1990, and 2000 are from the US Census Bureau.
<br />2 The average increments were obtained by subtracting 1980 from 1990 and 1990 from 2000 and dividing the
<br />sum by 2. Example: ((1990 -1980) + (2000- 1990))/2. The projections were done by adding the average
<br />increment to the 2000 data and multiplying the result by the difference in the projection year and the most
<br />recent year of data, then dividing that result by 10 (10 year projection increments). Example Little River: (3047
<br />+ 777) * ((2010- 2000)/10)
<br />Methodology taken from URBAN LAND USE PLANNING, Fourth Edition (p.125) County Planning library.
<br />3Durham City comprises two small areas of Orange County, one each in Eno and Chapel Hill Townships. The
<br />total.population of both areas is 39 people. These people were included in their respective township totals.
<br />4 For the municipalities, only the portions within Orange County are included. The Town of Chapel Hill's
<br />population figures do not include portions in Durham County, and the City Mebane's population figures do not
<br />include the portions in Alamance County.
