GHMC population. Households, literacy and work.
A detailed town profile in Andhra Pradesh, using the original Primary Census Abstract. Every figure on this page belongs to the source’s 2011 population and geography.
Historical geographic unit. Census 2011 town boundary and classification. The primary total includes the outgrowths (OG) explicitly included in the source name; it is not a municipal-core-only count. The town total is our sum of 29 separately published geographic parts, all sharing this Census town code. This town spans 3 historical districts; use the part counts when listing it within a district. This is not a present-day population or an urban-agglomeration total.

Using the profile in research
These are historical counts, not current market estimates or present-day projections for this town. Read the research guidance before choosing a denominator or adding eligibility, adoption and spending assumptions.
Definitions, calculation methods and source access
Literacy uses people aged 7 and above; work participation uses all residents. Main workers worked at least six months. Households are the PCA household count, not houses. Rates with zero denominators are unavailable. Names and boundaries belong to Census 2011.
The main profile combines the selected, non-overlapping components. A municipal-core row and its wider row including outgrowths are not added together.
