Is Horde underpopulated?

Hi all, I'm still kinda new to Nost PvE, and after taking a look at that pop census I saw the ration is something like 60% alliance and 40% horde, which comes to about 800 people on horde during peak hours. Is that enough for one faction?
I played on Nost PvP for months, and that place was surely crowded. I want to start playing horde on PvE, but seeing that alliance has more players, I'm not so sure anymore. Am I just worrying too much?
I would prefer to play horde but more than that, I would prefer to have plenty of interactions with other players as well. Looking forward to hearing from someone who knows PvE realm more than I do.

Yes alliance got more players.
Yes you're worrying too much.
Give it some time to get a good split on both factions.

I started leveling on the pve server about 3-4 weeks ago on horde side. Now I am level 57 and never had any problems finding groups for a dungeon or quest (with the exception of gnomeregan for obvious reasons). Plenty of people around in all zones, overall feels very blizzlike.
Also, I'm a rogue, so not exactly the most underpopulated class for dungeons. If you're rolling a tank or healer you should have even less problems finding groups.
Most of the people claiming the pve server was "dead" are coming from the ridiculously overpopulated pvp realm. Don't worry about it.

I think the 60 vs 40 percentage are realistic, but it's really no big deal. There are plenty of levellers both sides, and finding groups for dungeons is no problem (if you can dig up a tank!)

Not true. Level 37 atm and I have seen every dungeon (except Gnome) from inside. Most of the time building of the group only took ~15 minutes.
Play Druid, skill feral if u want to be 100% save. U can heal/tank/dps and every group will love you
