Kangerluk (old spelling: Kangerdluk) is a settlement in the Qaasuitsup municipality, in western Greenland, located on the southwestern shore of Disko Island. It had 33 inhabitants in 2010.[1]
[edit] Population
Kangerluk is rapidly depopulating, having lost more than half of its population relative to the 2000 levels.[2] If the trend continues much further, the settlement is likely to be closed.
