This represented a net decrease of 69 or a slight 0.1 percent decline over the 1991 Preliminary Results and a fall below the 2000 mid year population estimate of 76,154. BIRTHS AND DEATHS 1991 TO 2000 (Over the decade or last ten years) From 1991 to 2000 a total of 14,903 births were added to the population (page 7). Of these 7,353 females and 7,550 males, reflecting a sex ratio of 102.7 an almost 1:1 ratio. During the same period 5,581 persons died; of these deaths, 2,728 were females and 2,853 males. From this infonnation (over the decade) total births recorded 14,903. It is worth noting the steady decline in births over the last eight years (1993 to 2000). Natural increase (14,903 ­ 5,581) reflected 9,322 or a net addition of 9,322 persons, to the population through natural demographic process. The 1991 end of year population was 71,373; adding natural increase the total estimated population currently would be 80,695. However, other demographic processes or more precisely demographic forces affected the expected population. NET IMPLIED MIGRATION Assuming that the 1991 Population Census is correct the addition of 9,322 persons by natural increase processes, the population could have reached 80,695. This unattained level means other demographic forces prevailed over natural increase processes. Thus a population outflow was in operation over the ten-year transition. This net implied outflow or migration seemed to have taken out 8,968 approximately 9,000 persons out of the population reflecting an average outflow of 900 persons per year. Dominica's highest number of non-institutional population occurred in 1981 when 73,795 was recorded. From the last two censuses, population have not exceeded this number. However, over the last forty years (1960 to 2001) the population recorded a 17.6 percent increase. 5 POPULATION CHANGE In comparison to the 1991 Population Census and according to the 2001 Census Preliminary Results only 3 parishes seemed to have gained population; S1. Paul with the largest increase, 987; S1. John gained 907 and S1. Luke only 24. All other parishes reflected population loss, the largest in S1. Andrew with a loss of 645; St. George recorded a loss of 154; 51. Patrick follo\ved with a net loss of 452, 51. Joseph registered a loss of 243; St. Mark 52 persons; S1. Peter, 125, and 51. David, 188. The southern section of Dominica (excluding Delices Area, Boetica, and La Plaine Area) records 29,957 and accounts for 42.0% of the population. The northern section records 16,358 registering 23.0%; the west (including St. Paul) accounted for 15,940 reflecting 22.4% and the east recorded 8,987 accounting for 12.6% of the population. The population distribution by parish or population zone indicates that the Parish of 51. George (which includes the city of Roseau) records 28%, St. Andrew 15%, St. Patrick and St. Paul 12% each, St. David 10% and St. Joseph and St. John 8% (Tables 2 and 3). The largest communities are Roseau with 14,847 persons, Portsmouth with 4,012, Canefield 2,803; Marigot, 2,676; Grand Bay - Berricoa, 2,288; Salisbury, 2,129; Mahaut, 2,399; S1. Joseph 2,029; Wesley 1,756, Carib Territory, 1,653 and Pointe Mitchel, 1,576. Other communities, which have already reached 1,000 and more persons are as follows: Massacre, La Plaine, Castle Bruce, Atkinson, Calibishie, Soufriere and Woodford Hill. HOUSEHOLDS The total number of households in the 2001 Census recorded 24,041 in comparison to 20,168 in the 1991 Census. This represented a 19.2 % increase in households over the last (ten) 10 years. Currently the average number of persons per household is 3 in comparison to 4 in 1991. The Parish of St. George accounted for 27.2% of all households, while St. Andrew followed with 14.6%; St. Patrick and St. Paul recorded 11.7% and 11.6% respectively. St. Jolm (where the second town is located) accounted for 9.6%. VACANT BUILDINGS The Parish of St. George also remained in the lead in vacant buildings registering 19.5%; these are buildings that were not occupied during Census Enumeration or that residents were away for more than 6 months. St. Andrew followed with 18.1 % and St. Joseph 12.0%. St. Patrick and St. John registered 11.7% and 11.5% respectively. It is interesting to note that the parish of S1. Andrew having registered a significant percentage in vacant buildings also reflected the largest population loss (Table 2 and 7). 6 CE1\SCS 200 1 .

  • NAMES on DOMINICA Dominica Was Occupied Successively by Speakers
    NAMES ON DOMINICA BY DOUGLAS TAYLOR *) Dominica was occupied successively by speakers of Arawakan, Cariban, French, and English dialects, all of which have left their mark in place-names, as well as in the names of local flora and fauna. African influence appears to have been minimal in this respect. The Arawakan language of the island's early in- habitants survived that of the Carib invaders (from which, how- ever, many words were borrowed), but the last native speaker died about 1920. Two languages are spoken today: English and a dialect of French Creole. The former, being the language of prestige, is usually employed by the more socio-economically privileged minority, the latter by the peasant majority, few of whom know much English. However, members of the first class often resort to Creole in their more intimate relations; while many among even the poorest peasants may be heard addressing young children in what they believe to be English, and chiding them for speaking "Patois". One curious result of this situation is that not only local fruits, trees, fishes, birds, e/c., but also many places — probably most of those that have ever been recorded in writing — have two (or more) names, the one em- ployed in Creole and the other in English speech. So, for example, Grande Anse or Portsmouth is the island's second largest town, Charlotteville or New Town is a suburb of the capital Roseau (which has no other name), Cachacrou or Scots Head is a peninsula at the island's southwestern extremity, Cachibona of Clyde is one of its rivers.
