Looking back at older records, we can see how the population has changed:

  • In 1991, there were 506 people living in Bilice. Most of them, about 93.68%, were Croats. A smaller group, about 6.32%, were Serbs.
  • Ten years earlier, in 1981, the total population was 523. Again, the majority were Croats (89.48%). Serbs made up 9.56% of the population. There were also a few Bosniaks and Yugoslavs living there.
  • Even further back, in 1971, Bilice had 572 residents. Croats were the largest group at 90.03%, and Serbs were 9.09%.

These numbers show that Bilice has seen its population decrease over the years. It has gone from a larger community to a very small one today.
