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 2 separately published geographic parts, all sharing this Census town code. This is not a present-day population or an urban-agglomeration total.
