Total population (including Bender): 555,347 (percentages below refer to this first figure)
Total population (excluding Bender): 450,337
Preliminary data, as shown here, was released forty days after the completion of the census. Final and more detailed results were released with a delay of nearly two years.
Compared with the 1989 census, the population decreased by 18% due to war, natural decrease and economically motivated emigration.[1]
