Bosnia and Herzegovina in numbers

3,185,073 people lived in Bosnia and Herzegovina in mid-2023: 0.04% of the world's people, and the 136th-largest population of the 236 countries and areas the UN reports. That is 1.2 times its 1950 population of 2.7 million.

Its population peaked in 1991 at 4.5 million and has been falling since. The UN's medium projection has 1.4 million in 2100. The projection is uncertain: on 1 January 2100 the UN's 95% range runs from 456 thousand to 4.3 million.

Since 2010, more people have died here each year than have been born, and the UN's projection has that holding every year to 2100. Deaths also outnumbered births in 1992–1993.

The median age was 20.0 in 1950 and 45.9 in 2023; the projection has 54.9 in 2100. 21.6% of people were 65 or older in 2023, against 37.4% projected for 2100. The working-age population (15–64) peaked in 1991 at 3.1 million; in 2023 it was 2.1 million.

Among countries it ranks 136th in 2023, 145th in 2050 and 152nd in 2100. In the medium projection it overtakes Puerto Rico in 2057. It is overtaken by Namibia in 2026, Qatar in 2026 and the Gambia in 2029.

Bosnia and Herzegovina, every age in every year

Each column is a year and each row an age; the denser the ink in a cell, the more people. Everyone born in the same year climbs one 45° diagonal, so famines, baby booms and migration show up as streaks. Select a cell to follow its generation.

Who does the work in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Bosnia and Herzegovina had the most working-age people it is ever expected to have in 1991: 3,068,740 people aged 15–64, against 2,074,680 in 2023.

How to read this: take 100 people of working age — the orange row — and the two rows under it are the children (teal) and the people of 65 and over (violet) who lived alongside them in 2023.

Fewer than 50 dependants live alongside every 100 people aged 15–64 in 35 years: 1982–1992 and 1996–2019.

How to read this: the strip runs 1950 to 2100. Coloured years are the ones with under 50 dependants for every 100 people aged 15–64; grey years are the rest, and a hatched year has not happened yet.

BIH · arrivals minus departures

Who arrives in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and who leaves

In 2020–2025 Bosnia and Herzegovina loses 9,650 people a year: everyone who arrives, minus everyone who leaves. The age at which that happens most is 20–24, at 1,884 a year more leaving than arriving.

one square = 200 people a year

020406080+

more arrive than leave more leave than arrive

How to read this: age runs left to right, babies to 100. A blue square above the line means arrivals outnumber departures at that age, an orange square below it means the opposite. The figures are the UN's projection for 2020–2025; nobody recorded migration by age before 2020.

Its best and worst years between 1950 and 2023: a gain of 173,193 (1996), and a loss of 436,814 (1992).

In 2024, 34,120 people living in Bosnia and Herzegovina had been born in another country, 1 of every 100 people there, against 1 in 1990.

How to read this: count the squares — 2,000 people each, so the rows can be compared with one another. The last row is people from Bosnia and Herzegovina living in another country, wherever they are. An outlined square means fewer people than one square stands for.

In 2025, 162 people asked for asylum in Bosnia and Herzegovina for the first time; 569 people from Bosnia and Herzegovina asked for asylum in another country.
