Hi: Just checked the 2000 census returns for Pierce County, Wisconsin. The population is 36, 804 for the entire county. Sure could wish that was the same for where I live here in Washington! My county here (King) has nearly 1.8 million residents. No wonder you can't turn around without falling over somebody! Got room for one more if a wandering soul decides to dump the rat race and return home one day? For detailed info on the population (2000) of Pierce (or any other county and state) click on this link. http://factfinder.census.gov/servlet/BasicFactsServlet Debbie Barrett County Coordinator Pierce County WIGenWeb Project http://www.rootsweb.com/~wipierce/
