Polish census of 1931

Polish census of 1931

The Polish census of 1931 was the second census in the Second Polish Republic, performed on December 9, 1931 by the Main Bureau of Statistics (Główny Urząd Statystyczny). While it was widely considered impartial at the time it was taken, the question of nationality was replaced by two separate questions of "religion worshipped" and the "language spoken at home". Fact|date=August 2008

The allocation of the Polish, German and other population is by the primary language spoken. Jews are given by religion. Most Jews spoke Yiddish, however included with the Jews are 372,000 Polish speakers who are sometimes classified with the Polish group. Included with the Poles are 984,000 Eastern Orthodox & Greek Catholic adherents who are sometimes classified with the Ukrainian and Belarusian groups.
