Millers in a medieval or fantasy town: how many, and where
About one household of millers for every 3,900 townspeople. Counted as masters and heads of household: journeymen, apprentices and servants come on top. The Paris tax roll of 1292 names 56 of them, for a city of about 220,000 people: only those who paid the taille, so fewer than there were. About as common as potters and bakers and cooks.

|---|---|
| 3,000 | 1 |
| 10,000 | 3 |
| 40,000 | 10 |
| 150,000 | 39 |
