repeople
Fill with inhabitants
To repeople is to populate again—to restore inhabitants to a place that has lost them.
A town might be repeopled after a plague or war, a forest repeopled with wildlife after conservation efforts.
The word appears occasionally in historical and ecological contexts: The region was gradually repeopled after the famine.
