Palo Alto Population - 7/20/2007
You have a great and very useful web site!

Your web site reports the Palo Alto population as 15,672 for zip code 94301. While that may be true for that zip code, it is misleading. Palo Alto includes zip codes 94301-94306 (except 94305 which is for Stanford University).

As a 42-year Palo Alto resident, I know the residential population is about 61,000 and the daytime population swells to over 100,000 from all the inbound day workers.
