Homo sapiens; growth slowing toward a projected peak
Europe · Northern Europe
Iceland is recorded at 393.4k people in 2024, with total annual change of +5,311 under the WPP medium variant.
Iceland observed 2023 population pyramid, grouped into five broad age bands from WPP single-age male and female arrays.
Population identity: births minus deaths plus net migration equals total change within the Record tolerance.
