Grenada population

On the UN's projection, Grenada will have the most working-age people it ever has in 2030: 80,489 people aged 15–64. In 2023 it had 79,947.

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 38 years: 2011–2048.

How to read this: 1950 on the left, 2100 on the right; coloured in the years with fewer than 50 dependants per 100 working-age people, grey in the rest, hatched where that is a projection.

How every country compares

In 2020–2025 Grenada loses 143 people a year: everyone who arrives, minus everyone who leaves. The age at which that happens most is 20–24, at 31 a year more leaving than arriving.

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.

In the years that were counted, 1950–2023, the most it gained in one year was 0 (2020) and the most it lost was 3,350 (1966).

In 2024, 7,340 people living in Grenada had been born in another country, 6 of every 100 people there, against 4 in 1990.

How migration works everywhere

Of every 100 babies born in Grenada in 2023, 9 had a mother under 20, 69 a mother aged 20 to 34 and 22 a mother aged 35 or older. In 1950 it was 18 under 20 and 11 aged 35 or older.

The mother's age: under 20 20 to 34 35 or older projected

How to read this: one block a year, 100 squares in each, a square for every hundredth baby. The colour is the mother's age group, and the three numbers underneath are those groups in order, youngest first.

UNHCR publishes no refugees, asylum-seekers or displaced people in or from Grenada at the end of 2025.

An empty row is not the same as a zero. These figures cover the people one agency works with, so a country it has no operation in has nothing to report here.

In 2025, 96 people from Grenada asked for asylum in another country. Of every 100 people from Grenada whose claims were decided that year, 22 were given protection. Who asks for asylum, and who is given it

How the world's displacement is counted

Of every 100 people in Grenada in 2025, 73 lived in a town or suburb and 27 in the countryside.

How to read this: everyone here, shrunk to 100 squares, with the colour saying whether that hundredth person lives in a city, a town or the countryside. Every country is measured by the same rule.

How the world's people live

Of every 100 adults in Grenada in 2020, 4 never went to school and 50 finished upper secondary or went further.

Its people aged 15 to 64 are projected to be most numerous in 2045; the ones who finished upper secondary are most numerous later, in 2050.

How to read this: the row is the adults (25 and over) shrunk to 100 people, coloured by how far each went in school, least schooling on the left. The Wittgenstein Centre's count, 2020.

How far the world's people went in school

No place in Grenada is big and dense enough to count as a city under the UN's rule — at least 50,000 people, living 1,500 or more to the square kilometre.
