Any sort of analysis of a town in India becomes unfinished if a person does not throw enough light on the demographical situation of that specific town. Over the years abundant surveys and research works have been carried on by the demographers, which ensued the preparation of extensive reports. In this regard it would be unfair if the Census report of India of the year 2001 is not mentioned. Important data viz. population, literacy condition etc can be brought forth only with a careful study of the report. As per this report the total population of Narasaraopet has been enumerated to be 95,002. Specifications about males and females also can be duly inferred from this report.

This confirms that development has more or less occurred in Narasaraopet.
Not only that the propensity of males towards education also is acclaimed with the citation of high male literacy rate as a reference. In Narasaraopet 72 % is male literacy rate. However female literacy is much less thus constituting 57 % only.
Myriads of tourists throng the region to behold its wonders. The Kotappakonda Shiva temple is one such place, which lies near about 12 km from Narasaraopet. Festivals and fairs form an integral part of Narasaraopet. Each and every people get enthralled with the Mahashivarathri Festival. At the time of this festival special cultural shows also are organized performed.
