    "Sarajevo has about 300,000 inhabitants, 100,000 less than before the war. 1991 the percentage of Muslim Bosnians made up 45% (38% Orthodox Serbs). After the war the percentage reduplicated to nearly 87% (5% Serbs)."

    In other words, the Serbs were about 40% of the population of Sarajevo before the war. Today they are 5% or probably less than that.

    Here is a source:

    Quote:
    According to the last and the only legitimate census, from 1981, 450,000 inhabitants lived in six municipalities within the central part of Sarajevo, Stari Grad, Centar, Novo Sarajevo, Novi Grad, Vogosca and Ilidza, which cover 45 square kilometers and 68 settlements. Serbs were more than 50 percent of population in 39 settlements, covering 47.2 percent of the territory, Muslims were the absolute majority in 13 settlements, covering 16.5 percent of the region.
