Africa · Eastern Africa
Somalia is recorded at 19.01m people in 2024, with total annual change of +646,650 under the WPP medium variant.
Somalia 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.
