Europe · Southern Europe
Italy is recorded at 59.34m people in 2024, with total annual change of -184,548 under the WPP medium variant.
Italy 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.
