This is a list of countries showing past and future population density, ranging from 1950 to 2300, as estimated by the 2017 revision of the World Population Prospects database by the United Nations Population Division. The population density equals the number of human inhabitants per square kilometer of land area.
Estimated and projected populations of the world and its continents (except Antarctica) from 1950 to 2100, graphed by CMG Lee. The lower and upper boundaries of the shaded regions correspond to low and high variants (lower and upper bounds) of the projections by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs.
A chart of changes in world population growth rate from 1950–2010 (red) and predicted changes in world population growth rate from 2010–2050 (blue). The original was created 6 Dec 2003 by Securiger from data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau. Converted to SVG by Conscious.
The national 1 July, mid-year population estimates (usually based on past national censuses) supplied in these tables are given in thousands. The retrospective figures use the present-day names and world political division: for example, the table gives data for each of the 15 republics of the former Soviet Union, as if they had already been independent in 1950.
This is a list of countries showing past fertility rate, ranging from 1950 to 2015 in five-year periods, as estimated by the 2017 revision of the World Population Prospects database by the United Nations Population Division. The fertility rate equals the expected number of children born per woman in her child-bearing years.
Graph of world population over the past 12,000 years . As a general rule, the confidence of estimates on historical world population decreases for the more distant past. Robust population data exist only for the last two or three centuries. Until the late 18th century, few governments had ever performed an accurate census.
The current world population growth is approximately 1.09%. [7] People under 15 years of age made up over a quarter of the world population (25.18%), and people age 65 and over made up nearly ten percent (9.69%) in 2021. [7] The world population more than tripled during the 20th century from about 1.65 billion in 1900 to 5.97 billion in 1999.
English: Total Fertility Rate (TFR) is the average number of children that would be born to a woman over her lifetime. Source of the data is United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Dynamics, World Population Prospects 2019, File: Total Fertility
