Encyclopedic overview
San Ġwann (transl. Saint John) is a town in the Northern Region of Malta, with a population of 14,244 as of 2021. Prior to its establishment as a distinct municipality, it was a fragmented community comprising parts of Birkirkara and St. Julian's. San Ġwann emerged as a new parish in 1965 and was officially recognised as a town in 1968. The Local Councils Act of 1993 identified San Ġwann as a separate district with its own statutory local government authority, marking its transition from being part of the neighbouring localities. San Ġwann Council was elected on 16 April 1994.
The population of San Ġwann was 15,882 in July 2024. This included 8,380 males and 7,502 females; 10,903 Maltese nationals and 4,979 foreign nationals.
