On the population figures. Each municipal population is the 2020 decennial census count, taken from the Census Bureau's own P.L. 94-171 redistricting file rather than from any secondary summary of it. All forty-eight add up to 44,092, which is exactly the published county total. They did not always. Until 1 September 2026 these figures were read from each municipality's Wikipedia article, 29 of the 48 were wrong, and the note here explained away the resulting 27-person gap as an unreconcilable rounding difference. There was no rounding difference. Shade Gap borough alone was published as 105 against an actual 78.
