Georgia in numbers

3,807,492 people lived in Georgia in mid-2023: 0.05% of the world's people, and the 131st-largest population of the 236 countries and areas the UN reports. That is 1.1 times its 1950 population of 3.5 million.

Its population peaked in 1988 at 5.5 million and has been falling since. The UN's medium projection has 3.0 million in 2100. The projection is uncertain: on 1 January 2100 the UN's 95% range runs from 580 thousand to 15.4 million.

2021 was the last year births kept up with deaths. Every year since has had more deaths than births, as does every projected year to 2100.

The median age was 25.8 in 1950 and 37.8 in 2023; the projection has 49.2 in 2100. 15.3% of people were 65 or older in 2023, against 29.9% projected for 2100. The working-age population (15–64) peaked in 1988 at 3.6 million; in 2023 it was 2.4 million.

Its place in the world by population: 131st in 2023, 136th in 2050, 140th in 2100. In the medium projection it overtakes Croatia in 2027 and Hong Kong in 2083. It is overtaken by Eritrea in 2028, Mongolia in 2033 and Namibia in 2037.

Georgia, 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 Georgia

Georgia had the most working-age people it is ever expected to have in 1988: 3,624,100 people aged 15–64, against 2,423,150 in 2023.

Fewer than 50 dependants live alongside every 100 people aged 15–64 in 8 years: 2007–2014.

In 2020–2025 Georgia gains 5,457 people a year: everyone who arrives, minus everyone who leaves. The age at which that happens most is 25–29, at 1,047 a year more arriving than leaving.

How to read this: left to right is age, from babies to 100. Blue squares above the line are ages at which more people arrive than leave; orange squares below it, ages at which more leave than arrive. These are the UN's projection for 2020–2025. There is no record of migration by age before 2020.

Years in good health in Georgia

A baby born in Georgia in 2021 could expect 71.2 years of life, 62.5 of them in full health (95% range 61.9–63.2). That leaves 8.7 years in less than full health, fewer than the world's 9.5, which mostly means lives are shorter here, with fewer years in which to be ill.

How to read this: each square is a year of life, each row ten years; filled squares are years in full health, rounded to whole years.
