Mayor Michael Bloomberg's effort to get the city's official population modified higher under the 2010 Census was rejected Sunday, according to reports.
Last August, the city filed a formal challenge, saying the Big Apple's population was closer to 8.4 million and not the 8.175 million counted in the Census.
The mayor blamed faulty Census-taking in immigrant-rich neighborhoods across Brooklyn and Queens for the lower number. Census officials said the city's complaint isn't a type of error that can be corrected.
