Physicians and healers in a medieval or fantasy town: how many, and where
About one household of physicians and healers for every 1,100 townspeople. Counted as masters and heads of household: journeymen, apprentices and servants come on top. This ratio is counted in the Paris tax roll of 1292: only those who paid the taille, so fewer than there were.
| Townspeople | Households |
|---|---|
| 3,000 | 3 |
| 10,000 | 9 |
| 40,000 | 35 |
| 150,000 | 130 |
