There seems to be an abnormally large amount of villagers in my village. The village itself isn't really that big.
Does anyone know why am I getting a lot of villagers? Is there a way to solve this?
I play on a SMP server that I own.
Please Post And Comment Below. Thanks.
EDIT: If this has anything to do with the village population, I have 7 naturally spawned iron golems.
I have recently just noticed another problem. It is that none of the villagers have any other clothing besides the normal one. Why is this? Is it because it's multiplayer? Or is it another unknown bug?
Villager population is related to the number of "houses" in the village. Check the wiki for information. Once you have adjusted the village to the size you want, just kill the excess villagers.

The problem is, the villagers are stuffing like 10 in a small hut now at night. I never built any new houses ever since I arrived at the village.
If there aren't any children anymore, does that mean that the villager population has stopped growing and reached the house to villager ratio limit? Also, what do the villagers count as? Passive mob?
Passive Mobs.Your lucky i know a person who made a Public Bathroom in their village and all the villagers do at night is run into the stalls and crowd the back one. The Okward moment when your houses are so shitty a bathroom is better.
The number of natural iron golems has increased to 4... And now children are appearing again. Is there a way to stop this? Also, I read on the wiki that if there are underground lit caves, villager population will rapidly expand. Is there a way to determine if I have this problem?
Well, iron golems spawn for each like 14 or 15 villagers. Having 4 or 5 of those means you have like 50 villagers, which is a lot. Are there more houses than you know of? Villages are supposed to have 1 or 2 villagers in each house, so if this was true then there would be like 50 houses. Obviously there isn't. I recommend breaking down a house or two, and then killing some of them and then see what happens.

I know for a fact that I do not have 50 houses. The only houses I have are the ones that came when the village was spawned. I did not build any houses whatsoever.
I also do not know what the cause of all the villagers to spawn is. Is it a bug? Is there any known bugs that cause rapid villager population growth in SMP?
You can do a bit of mining to check for caves. If you're desperate, catch a few villagers to put in a safe area, and burn down the village. Then rebuild to the size you want. (Check the wiki for villager breeding details.) Also, check for a villager breeding machine that someone could have set up underground as an elaborate trolling.
If I make my own city, it will be a ghost town and I do not want that either. I just want a village with a normal population.
I'm planning to improve on this existing NPC Village and eventually expand it into a bustling city though. As of now, I'm trying to figure out why there are so many villagers spawning.
Hmmm....This is survival mode right? Because this has happened to me in creative mode but I didn't really pay attention to it. Not sure what to do. I tried looking at mc wiki and a bunch of different websites but I'm not getting anything...

I know for a fact the there is no underground breeding machine in my server. The server is PW protected and the only people who ever go on it is my cousin and me and I'm pretty sure that my cousin doesn't even know that villagers can be bred with a certain type of machine. As for burning down the village, I'm not totally annoyed and frustrated until that point; I merely want to just trim down the population a bit and keep it stable with how big the village is. Figuring out what the problem is will be the first step to do so.

Yes this is survival mode. And thanks for telling me that I'm not the only person with this problem
Do you know how long this rate of population spawning will keep up? Does it ever stop?
Well if you're planning on expanding the village then maybe you can just create like 5 houses and some villagers might move in instead of more spawning.

Remove half the doors and kill half the villagers. That should clear it out a bit.
Their numbers will lower

A city is a good idea
