Shipwrights in a medieval or fantasy town: how many, and where
About one household of shipwrights for every 110,000 townspeople. Counted as masters and heads of household: journeymen, apprentices and servants come on top. The Paris tax roll of 1292 names 2 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 glassmakers and innkeepers.
Only where the town makes shipyards.
| Townspeople | Households |
|---|---|
| 3,000 | none of its own, or one shared with the next town |
| 10,000 | none of its own, or one shared with the next town |
| 40,000 | none of its own, or one shared with the next town |
| 150,000 | 1 |
