The given tables compare the city population of five different regions (as percentages of the total) in New York City, between 1800 and 2000.
Overall, there was a progressive surge in the number of people in New York City throughout the given period, with all districts following the same pattern except for Manhattan.
At the beginning of the period, the total population of New York City stood at approximately 79,216, with the Manhattan region accounting for over 60,000 of that figure (76% in total), which was three times higher than that of other districts, comprising only 18,701 people during the same period.
Over the next century, there were significant changes in the city and district populations, especially in the other districts of New York. The figure for the Manhattan area reached a peak of over 1.8 million people, then fell gradually at the end of the given time. However, the population size in other districts increased over the past 100 years, accounting for over one and a half million.
By the end of the period, the total population in New York City saw a sharp upward trend, reaching over 8 million people, making it the highest figure in the questionnaires. In contrast to Manhattan, where the population experienced a significant decline, other districts showed a strong upward trend during the whole period, reaching nearly 1.5 million and 6.5 million, respectively.
