Notes¡G # Provisional figures
## Change of less than 0.05%
(1) Per 1,000 population
(2) Per 1,000 female population excluding female foreign domestic helpers
  (3) Per 1 000 population aged 15-64.
  (4) Figures from 1996 have been revised in view of the recent change in the situation of women giving births in Hong Kong. For details.
The Population By-census conducted in July to August 2006 provides a benchmark for revising the population figures compiled since the 2001 Population Census. In the above table, population-related figures from 2002 to 2005 have been revised accordingly
