_Specific census data for Moti Daman alone is blended with the broader Daman Municipal Council figures._
For the Daman district overall, the population was approximately 191,173 during the 2011 census. Moti Daman itself has a smaller residential population compared to Nani Daman, as a significant portion of its land area is dedicated to heritage sites and government buildings.
The population is ethnically diverse, heavily influenced by migration from neighboring Gujarat and Maharashtra, as well as industrial workers from across India. Hinduism is the majority religion, followed by Islam and Christianity. The Christian community, primarily Catholic, maintains historical ties to the Portuguese era.
Gujarati is the most widely spoken language, followed by Hindi and English. A very small, aging population still speaks Daman and Diu Portuguese, a fading Indo-Portuguese creole.
