In 1975 the population exceeded 2,000 for the first time ever.

However, during the summer months the population can exceed 8,000.

By the turn of the century, the population had exceeded 1,200.

The population of the city exceeded one million in 1932.

Not until 1980 did the population exceed the 1890 figure.

Its population almost certainly did not exceed 1,000, and may have been less than half that.

It became a city in 1980 when its population exceeded 5,000 people.

The population of this group likely does not exceed 1,000.

Over all, the population of the present city exceeds 550,000.

Of course, any nation with a population exceeding 1.2 billion people is going to have problems.
