Census Data for Africa
So far, we found very little information about Africa. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>
We've added Africa to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. If you can help us with Africa, please Contact Us.
As far as we can tell, Africa has not been included in past Census counts, so there is no population information for this community.

Footnotes ...
<1> | We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Africa, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy. |
<2> | While we're fans and frequent users of TripAdvisor, you should know that we're also members of the TripAdvisor affiliate program. |
<3> | The location has been supplied by the Geographic Names Information System - which is maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). While these values should be definitive, we found that accuracy can vary and you should double-check the location if accuracy is required. |
