Residents of Gateshead, like the rest of Tyneside, are usually referred to as Geordies. Gateshead´s town population in 2011 was 120,046.

Historically part of County Durham, under the Local Government Act 1888 the town was made a county borough, meaning it was administered independently of the county council. Since 1974, the town has been administered as part of the Metropolitan Borough of Gateshead within the metropolitan county of Tyne and Wear." - (en.wikipedia.org 15.10.2021)
