    No it isn't. It's a bit smaller than Cardiff but has a bigger metropolitan population who , if they weren't poncing about on boats , would be saints fans .

    No that's the population of the city of Southampton

    Including Portsmouth the metropolitan area of South Hampshire is 1 .6 million

    There is no local authority for S Hampshire, however the whole of Hampshire ( has 1.4 million population) but has Dorset to the west, Wiltshire to the north-west, Berkshire to the north, Surrey to the north-east, and West Sussex to the east.
