Villages that shrank most in Andhra Pradesh

A falling count usually means out-migration, but in a small village it can also mean a boundary change.

What this ranking leaves out, and why. 876 villages here had fewer than 100 people in 2011 — at that size a percentage says more about the surveyor than the village, so they are excluded. A further 34 sit within half a point of the limits beyond which we treat a figure as implausible (+150% or −40%): they are the villages that only just survived that test, not the fastest moving, and ranking them first would be misleading. That is 910 excluded in total. How the limits are set.
