Kragujevac was one of the largest Serbia's cities in the second half of the 19 century. Its population increased faster than average, while existing male-female ratio indicated larger scale immigration. Literacy among people of Kragujevac was higher than average, but turned over 50% only at the end of the century. Crafts, self employment and public services were most common occupations. Prices of basic agricultural products in Kragujevac were quite similar with average prices on the state level. More live stock was sold on fairs held in Kragujevac than on one average fair in Serbia. However, it is uncertain to what extent these fairs effected the people of Kragujevac.
