In my studies, I've come across the noun `人減` used in the context of
population.

An example would be,

`十一万人減`.

`減る` means to diminish / decrease.

Thus, I hypothesize the meaning of this noun is to express

`population has decreased [to 110 thousand]`.

Is my assumption correct, or is the meaning different?

It means "decrease/drop (of population) by 110 thousand".
