According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics 2007 Census, the Governorate had a population of 256,619[1] living in 47,437 households.[1] 100,701 inhabitants (or 39%) were under the age of 15 and 80,263 (or 31%) were registered refugees.[1] According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics 1997 Census, the Governorate had a population of 195,074.[2]
It is the only governorate in the West Bank where the majority of control of land is under the Palestinian National Authority. Four Israeli settlements were evacuated as a part of Israel's unilateral disengagement plan in 2005.
