Phuket Population |
Phuket people are genuinely charming ,friendly and hospitality. They are appreciate to sharing their love of the island and beloved country. inhabitants are Buddhist, Chinese Thai, Muslims, Sikhs, Hindus, Christians and a minority group called New Thai or Chao Ley, who are the original inhabitants of Phuket.
According to the census, Thai-Buddhists account for 71% of the population, with Malays (24%) and Chao Leh (4%) making up the remainder | |

The figure for Thai-Buddhists also includes the Chinese who are almost completely assimilated.ome estimates put the percentage of ethnic Chinese at around 35%. The vast majority of the population resides in or around Phuket City and Patong Beach, Creating a population distribution along an east-west axis.
In March 2007 the Phuket Provincial Administration office reported that there are 313,955 people registered as living in Phuket. However, this figure is likely to be quite a lot higher as this data does not take into account those who live and work in Phuket but are registered as being resident elsewhere, a fairly common occurrence. Together with this are the seasonal workers and visitors of which there are a significant number all year round. Taking this into account, some estimates have calculated a figure as high as 500,000 during peak periods. | | |
