Demographics

According to Ottoman statistics, the village had 180 inhabitants in 1895.[4] The village had 223 inhabitants in 1993, all ethnically Greeks.[3] The village today has a decreased permanent population of roughly 100 inhabitants, notably due to migration to Greece or other countries. Despite this, the population doubles in Easter, Summer and Christmas, as most people return to their village to celebrate or have holidays with their families.
