From projection, it is estimated that the population in Hong Kong would increase from 7 million in 2009 to 7.66 million by 2019. This set of maps shows the yearly distribution of the projected population by Tertiary Planning Unit (TPU) from 2014 to 2020. TPU is a geographic unit used by the Government for planning purpose. There are a total of 289 TPU in the territory of Hong Kong. The main population increases would take place in TPU in the New Territories, especially in Sha Tin and Tung Chung new towns and their neighbouring areas. Data for the maps were taken from the government report “Projections of population distribution 2015-2024” released by the Planning Department in December 2015.

根據推算，香港人口將會從2014年的724萬上升至2024年的776萬。小規劃統計區是政府進行城市規劃慣用的地理分界，全香港共分289小區。這一組地圖顯示香港按小區每年人口推算，可見來年增幅以新界地區較大，其中以沙田及東涌新市鎮及其鄰近地區增幅最為明顯。地圖數據源自香港政府規劃署2015年12月發表報告《人口分布推算2015-2024》。
