    It will come into affect on January 1st, and will increase population of town to 20k or so. Area is increased by a factor of 8. As and aside, I notice the plan is to increase the population of the town to 40k or so by 2020.

    I coulda sworn that the people newspaper said that we have 30k people at least in Wexford town already? Is there anywhere i could check out the figures? I like knowing useless facts. :D

    30k inclding the surrounding areas (Barntown/Castlebridge and similar). Castlebridge alone has 2000 people and is just outside town- it won't be inside the new borough area.
