Population and Demographics
Many of the foreign-born teachers that work in Jochiwon-eup live in Chimsan-ri, and the estimated native English foreigner population is around 50. As of 2011, Sejong has a large foreign community of native English speakers considering its small size and population. This is because there are two major universities there. The city aims to have a population of 200,000 at the end of 2012, 300,000 by 2020 and 500,000 by 2030.

Famous quotes containing the word population:
“America is like one of those old-fashioned six-cylinder truck engines that can be missing two sparkplugs and have a broken flywheel and have a crankshaft that’s 5000 millimeters off fitting properly, and two bad ball-bearings, and still runs. We’re in that kind of situation. We can have substantial parts of the population committing suicide, and still run and look fairly good.”
—Thomas McGuane (b. 1939)
