==Demographics== When Cergy was selected to become the center of a "[[new town#France|new town]]", it was only a village. The commune had only 2,895 inhabitants in 1968. It then started to develop very quickly, exceeding 10,000 inhabitants in the mid-1970s and then 20,000 in the early-1980s. It is in this decade that its growth was most spectacular, since the city exceeded 48,000 inhabitants in 1990. The increase continued since, but at a notably slower pace, to reach 54,500 at 2004 estimates. However, in December 2001, the commune lost a portion of its territory (net {{convert|0.03|km2|sqmi|abbr=on}} with a 1999 population of 62 persons) to the adjacent commune of [[Courdimanche]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/jorf/id/JORFTEXT000000771032|title=Décret du 4 décembre 2001 portant modification des limites territoriales de communes et de cantons du département du Val-d'Oise|website=[[Légifrance]]|language=fr}}</ref> The official census figures have thus been revised downward from the 1999 official 54,781 to 54,719, and the land area from {{convert|11.68|km2|sqmi|abbr=on}} to 11.65 km<sup>2</sup>. {{Historical populations | align = none | cols = 2 | percentages = pagr | source = EHESS<ref name=ehess>{{Cassini-Ehess|7488|Cergy}}</ref> and INSEE (1968-2017)<ref name=pophist>[https://www.insee.fr/fr/statistiques/4515315?geo=COM-95127#ancre-POP_T1 Population en historique depuis 1968], INSEE</ref> | graph-pos = bottom |1793 |1045 |1800 |1084 |1806 |1069 |1821 |987 |1831 |1016 |1836 |1000 |1841 |970 |1846 |956 |1851 |963 |1856 |922 |1861 |933 |1866 |953 |1872 |926 |1876 |897 |1881 |869 |1886 |889 |1891 |897 |1896 |902 |1901 |885 |1906 |942 |1911 |933 |1921 |963 |1926 |1060 |1931 |1118 |1936 |1106 |1946 |1138 |1954 |1447 |1962 |2455 |1968 |2895 |1975 |8896 |1982 |19357 |1990 |48226 |1999 |54781 |2007 |57600 |2012 |60528 |2017 |65177 }} ===Immigration=== {{France immigration |collectivity_name=Cergy |census_year=1999 |metropolitan_France=78.2 |outside_metropolitan_France=21.8 |overseas_France=2.8 |foreign_French=3.4 |EU-15=1.9 |non-EU-15=13.7 }}
