The figures, released today, showed that the largest growth in the Territory was in the north, which grew by 46,000 people, while the south only grew by 2400.
Gungahlin had the largest growth of all regions, more than doubling from 24,400 to 49,700 people.
Of all the capital cities, Melbourne recorded the largest population growth.
