Here the decrease is more prominent with a drop of 11 compared to 1968 -- The largest increase during the year occurred in the cat- egory-10--19 years from 553 in 1968 to 613 in 1969, an increase of 60 residents. The largest group of resid- ents is in the 20--59 years. However, the increase here was only 16 during the year, from 1217 in 1968 to 1233 in 1969.
