North Korea's Population Reaches 26.23 Million
Recent Census Data and UN Projections
As of Wednesday, April 24, 2024, the population of North Korea has reached 26,229,098, according to Worldometer's analysis of the latest United Nations data. This represents a significant increase since the last census in 2008, which reported a population of 24 million.
UN Projections and Trends
The current population estimate is based on projections from the United Nations, which estimates that the population will continue to grow to reach 26,230,467 by July 1, 2024. This growth is driven by a combination of natural increase (births minus deaths) and international migration.
North Korea's population growth rate has slowed in recent years due to declining birth rates and an aging population. Nevertheless, the country remains one of the most populous in East Asia.
