Madagascar in numbers

31,195,932 people lived in Madagascar in mid-2023: 0.39% of the world's people, and the 49th-largest population of the 236 countries and areas the UN reports. That is 7.9 times its 1950 population of 4.0 million.

In the UN's medium projection it is still growing in 2100, when it reaches 85.3 million. The projection is uncertain: on 1 January 2100 the UN's 95% range runs from 45.1 million to 182 million.

Births outnumber deaths in every year from 1950 to 2100, estimates and projection alike.

The median age was 20.7 in 1950 and 19.9 in 2023; the projection has 35.2 in 2100. 3.3% of people were 65 or older in 2023, against 13.3% projected for 2100. The working-age population (15–64) is still growing in 2100 in the medium projection.

Its place in the world by population: 49th in 2023, 37th in 2050, 29th in 2100. In the medium projection it overtakes Peru in 2029, Poland in 2031 and Ukraine in 2032. It is overtaken by Côte d’Ivoire in 2030, Niger in 2054 and Cameroon in 2074.

Madagascar, 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.

MDG · ages 15–64

Who does the work in Madagascar

In Madagascar the number of people aged 15–64 is still growing in 2100, the last year the UN projects. In 2023 there were 17,810,600 of them.

At no point between 1950 and 2100 do fewer than 50 dependants live alongside every 100 people aged 15–64 here.

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.

Who arrives in Madagascar, and who leaves

In 2020–2025 Madagascar loses 1,621 people a year: everyone who arrives, minus everyone who leaves. The age at which that happens most is 20–24, at 1,405 a year more leaving than arriving.

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 0 (1950); its biggest loss, 18,345 (2003).

In 2024, 38,625 people living in Madagascar had been born in another country, fewer than 1 of every 100 people there, against fewer than 1 in 1990.

Years in good health in Madagascar

A baby born in Madagascar in 2021 could expect 62.9 years of life, 55.1 of them in full health (95% range 54.2–56.0). The years in less than full health come to 7.8, below the world's 9.5: shorter lives leave 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.
