pronunciation

[edit]

Is it WOOS-tər, like the one in England? Lfh (talk) 10:58, 16 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well the majority of people in Worcester speak Afrikaans and the Afrikaans pronounciation is with a "v", so it would sound like VOOS-tər Bezuidenhout (talk) 13:02, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. But in South African English, it is pronounced like the English one. - htonl (talk) 11:30, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Demographics

[edit]

Are the Demographics for the actual city or munipality? It looks like it's only for the muncip. Bezuidenhout (talk) 19:54, 23 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Population

[edit]

How can the population of the town be 140,000+ when the Breede Valley Municipality is only 130,000? They were both taken in 2001, so there wasn't some sort of population increase. Bezuidenhout (talk) 13:00, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I see now, the population is for the municipality and the 130,000 figure is in 2007, so there was a population decrease.
