    From 1950 Qoornoq belonged to the new municipality of Nuuk. By 1950 the population rose to 156 people. In 1960 there were already 227 inhabitants. Nevertheless, Qoornoq became a victim of the concentration policy of the 1960s and in 1970 only 65 people lived in the village. In 1974 Qoornoq was officially given up. However, between 1979 and 2009 a number of one to four people were counted as residents. The place is very well preserved as the buildings are used as holiday homes by the Greenlanders in summer.
