Annual Demographic Movement of the population of Matera from 1931 to the present

Demographic Movement, to December 31 of each year, from 1931 complete with birth rates, mortality and data relating to the General Censuses. Speaking of censuses, it is good to trace a brief history of them. The first General Population Census in Italy dates back to 1861, the year of the unification of the country in the Kingdom of Italy and the Italians censused were 26 million and three hundred thousand. Since 1861, census sessions have been held every 10 years with the exceptions of 1891, due to the financial difficulties of the country and 1941 due to the 2nd world conflict. Another exception is represented by the 1936 Census, carried out just 5 years after the previous one following a legislative reform of 1930 that had modified its periodicity, immediately after reported every ten years until 2011. Since 2018, the Censuses have become permanent and sample-based, meaning that each year a sample of families is interviewed that is different from that of the previous year. The census population in our country exceeds 60 million.
