18379: Esser: Re: 18374: Laleau: Population of Gonaives (fwd)

The World Gazeteer (www.world-gazetteer.com) gives a number of
inhabitants for 2004 of about 80,000.

This is their page for Haiti:

Their numbers generally seem fairly accurate, although I suspect
nobody has an exact number because in lesser developed countries such
as Haiti this is not an exact science.
