Montana Final Census Puts State Population at 701 573
The final 1970 census count for Montana shows 701 573 residents, up 3.82 percent since 1960 and ranking 43rd among states. Administrator R Thomas Dundas explains the discrepancy with the September advance figure due to residents abroad and servicemen not counted in that tally. Idaho's population is 719 921, Montana ahead of several smaller states.
