“Another mistaken notion connected with the law of large numbers is the idea that an event is more or less likely to occur because it has or has not happened recently.
The idea that the odds of an event with a fixed probability increase or decrease depending on recent occurrences of the event is called the gambler's fallacy.” (Leonard Mlodinow , The Drunkard's Walk: How Randomness Rules Our Lives) ii CONTENTS Tables Foreword Editorial Explanatory Notes Chapter 1 GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT NEVIS ℘ Notable Local & Historical Events ℘ Structure of Nevis Island Administration & Elections Results ℘ Election Results Chapter 2 POPULATION AND VITAL STATISTICS ℘ Population/Population Growth, Ethnic Groups, Religion ℘ Birth, Death & Infant Mortality, Teenage Pregnancy ℘ Marriages, Location of Marriages and Divorces Chapter 3 HOUSING, INFRASTRUCTURE AND CONSTRUCTION ℘ Households, Building Permits Issued ℘ Titles Registered, Deeds Registered ℘ Electricity Consumers and Production ℘ Water Consumption ℘ Building started Construction by Type Chapter 4 TRANSPORTATION ℘ Registration and Licensing of Vehicles, Importation of Vehicles, ℘ Drivers Written & Road Test, Traffic Accidents ℘ Aircraft Movements ℘ Cargo Movements via Air and Sea Ports Chapter 5 TOURISM AND PASSENGERS MOVEMENT ℘ Accommodations ℘ Visitors Arrivals ℘ Length of Stay & Purpose of Visit ℘ Yacht and Cruise Calls & Passengers ℘ Passengers Movements via Air & Sea Ports ℘ Arrivals into St. Kitts bound for Nevis iii Chapter 6 HEALTH AND SOCIAL ℘ Selected Health Indicators ℘ Number of Registered Medical Practitioners ℘ Intentional & Unintentional Injuries ℘ Infant & Toddlers Visit ℘ Registered Psychiatric Patients ℘ Laboratory Cases at Alexander Hospital & Avalon ℘ Registered Diabetics & Hypertensive Patients ℘ Dental Unit Chapter 7 SOCIAL SERVICES AND GENDER AFFAIRS ℘ Reported Cases from Family Services Division ℘ Hot Meals distribution by Parish & Gender Chapter 8 FINANCE ℘ NIA Revenue and Expenditure (Estimates) ℘ Inland Revenue Department ℘ Customs & Excise Department ℘ Nevis Financial Services ℘ SKB/NEV GDP ℘ Consumer Price Index – Inflation Rate Chapter 9 EDUCATION ℘ General Information on Pre-Schools, Nurseries, Primary,

x Editorial Welcome to the 2019 issue of the Statistics Digest.
Presented by the Department of Statistics, this 6th revised-edition, is intended for use as an essential reference tool for policy makers and economists.

The data collected are used to calculate indicators to track, monitor and evaluate the country’s progress.

This Digest, will aid decision-makers to interpret trends and realities of the economy.
For it was William James, an American philosopher and psychologist who once said, “We must be careful not to confuse data with the abstraction we use to analyse them.” Hence, from time to time, Statistical directorates have assembled in various OECS countries to discuss ways forward on improving the delivery of statistics across the region.

Therefore it is imperative that the Statistics Units produce not only accurate but timely data.
Each section captured in this digest, detail trends for assessment and monitoring systems performance to include but not limited to the number of construction, importation of vehicles, movement of cargo and people, the agricultural production and various crimes reported to the authorities.

The preliminary chapters of this digest provide details on the country’s demographics and the political trend dating back to 1984.
Historical events dating 1493 to present and notable local events form part of the dossier.
For those of you who have appreciated our previous editions, it is my pleasure as the Editor to present this year’s publication, and to keep in mind the words once said by Paul Anderson, “I have yet to see any problem however complicated, which when you looked at it the right way, did not become more, still complicated.” Special thanks is extended to our private and public partners who collected, collated, disseminated, analysed and forward the data use to assist in this year’s publication.
We look forward to the continual harmonization between, other departments of government, the private sector of the economy and our department.

The uniqueness of the 1983 Constitution Order of St. Christopher and Nevis, gives credence for autonomy for the island of Nevis.

With five (5) single-member constituencies and a majority rule voting system for a period of five years term of assembly, the constitution allows for a composition of the Nevis Island Assembly.

As such, there are eight (8) parliamentary members who are elected and/or nominated to serve.
As a constitutional monarchy within the Commonwealth of Nations, the Federation recognizes Queen Elizabeth 11 (British Monarch) or her successor as the titular head of government.

The Monarch is represented on the island of Nevis by a Deputy Governor General appointed by the Governor General (titular head) of the Federation, who is constitutionally responsible for the government of both islands.
Since the realization of Independence in 1983, the island of Nevis is governed by an administrative division known as the Nevis Island Administration.
