I have deleted the Census data of 2001 because they massively undercount, as Greeks flock to the rural villages of their ancestors to register at Census time, when in reality they reside all year in Athens or some other major city. They do this because of state subsidies for rural areas based on registration numbers in the Census. Martin Baldwin-Edwards 17:45, 16 August 2008 (CDT)
