KGZ · 1950–2100 · in brief
Kyrgyzstan in numbers
The UN counts 7,073,515 people in Kyrgyzstan in mid-2023, which makes it the 107th-largest population of the 236 countries and areas the UN reports, and 0.09% of the world's people. That is 4.0 times its 1950 population of 1.8 million.
In the UN's medium projection it is still growing in 2100, when it reaches 11.7 million. The projection is uncertain: on 1 January 2100 the UN's 95% range runs from 4.8 million to 27.8 million.
Births outnumber deaths in every year from 1950 to 2100, estimates and projection alike.
The median age was 24.6 in 1950 and 26.1 in 2023; the projection has 42.4 in 2100. 5.4% of people were 65 or older in 2023, against 21.9% projected for 2100. The working-age population (15–64) is projected to peak in 2078 at 7.3 million.
Its place in the world by population: 107th in 2023, 100th in 2050, 93rd in 2100. In the medium projection it overtakes Hong Kong in 2026, Belarus in 2036 and Libya in 2036. It is overtaken by the Republic of the Congo in 2037, the Central African Republic in 2043 and Mauritania in 2053.

Kyrgyzstan, 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.
KGZ · ages 15–64
Who does the work in Kyrgyzstan
On the UN's projection, Kyrgyzstan will have the most working-age people it ever has in 2078: 7,267,740 people aged 15–64. In 2023 it had 4,378,600.
aged 15–64 children under 15 aged 65 and over
How to read this: one orange square for each of 100 people aged 15–64 in 2023. Beneath them, teal for the children living alongside those 100 and violet for the people aged 65 or older.
At no point between 1950 and 2100 do fewer than 50 dependants live alongside every 100 people aged 15–64 here.
fewer than 50 dependants per 100 the same, projected 50 or more
How to read this: one stripe a year from 1950 to 2100. A stripe takes colour in a year when fewer than 50 dependants live alongside every 100 people of working age, and stays grey otherwise; hatching means the year is projected.
KGZ · arrivals minus departures
Who arrives in Kyrgyzstan, and who leaves
In 2020–2025 Kyrgyzstan gains 19,262 people a year: everyone who arrives, minus everyone who leaves. The age at which that happens most is 35–39, at 8,306 a year more arriving than leaving.
more arrive than leave more leave than arrive
How to read this: each column is one age, youngest on the left. Above the line, in blue, are the ages gaining people; below it, in orange, the ages losing them. This is the UN's projection for 2020–2025 — the record of migration by age does not go back beyond 2020.
Across the counted years, 1950 to 2023, its biggest single-year gain was 54,704 (2020); its biggest loss, 103,698 (1993).
In 2024, 194,816 people living in Kyrgyzstan had been born in another country, 3 of every 100 people there, against 14 in 1990.

Years in good health in Kyrgyzstan
A baby born in Kyrgyzstan in 2021 could expect 72.2 years of life, 63.4 of them in full health (95% range 62.8–64.1). The years in less than full health come to 8.8, below the world's 9.5, in lives longer than the world's 71.4 years: more of them are healthy ones.
65.5 in full health, 10.3 not: 75.8 years
61.3 in full health, 7.2 not: 68.5 years
a year in full health a year in less than full health
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.
Women: 65.5 healthy years of 75.8. Men: 61.3 of 68.5. In 2019, before the pandemic, the healthy years were 64.8.

How to read this: one square stands for 1,000 people, so the rows can be compared with one another. The last row is people from Kyrgyzstan living in another country, wherever they are.
In 2025, 854 people asked for asylum in Kyrgyzstan for the first time; 1,712 people from Kyrgyzstan asked for asylum in another country. Of every 100 people from Kyrgyzstan whose claims were decided that year, 18 were given protection. Who asks for asylum, and who is given it

Nearly everyone has electricity at home (2024). 8 of every 100 do not use the internet (2024).
How to read this: one square for every hundredth person, coloured as the key shows. Because the rule behind the colours is the same everywhere, two countries' squares can be compared directly.
