Peru in numbers

Peru had 33,845,617 people in mid-2023, the 45th-largest population of the 236 countries and areas the UN reports, and 0.42% of the world's people. That is 4.4 times its 1950 population of 7.7 million.

The UN's medium projection has it peaking in 2066 at 41.7 million, then falling to 38.2 million by 2100. The projection is uncertain: on 1 January 2100 the UN's 95% range runs from 19.2 million to 71.0 million.

Births stay ahead of deaths until 2067; in the medium projection, deaths are ahead every year after it.

The median age was 18.9 in 1950 and 30.5 in 2023; the projection has 49.9 in 2100. 9.0% of people were 65 or older in 2023, against 31.9% projected for 2100. The working-age population (15–64) is projected to peak in 2049 at 26.3 million.

Its place in the world by population: 45th in 2023, 51st in 2050, 56th in 2100. In the medium projection it overtakes Poland in 2033, Ukraine in 2034 and South Korea in 2058. It is overtaken by Ghana in 2024, Mozambique in 2024 and Saudi Arabia in 2026.

Peru, 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.

PER · ages 15–64

Who does the work in Peru

On the UN's projection, Peru will have the most working-age people it ever has in 2049: 26,267,300 people aged 15–64. In 2023 it had 22,557,900.

100 aged 15–64

37 children

aged 15–64 children under 15 aged 65 and over

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 15 years: 2024–2038.

fewer than 50 dependants per 100 the same, projected 50 or more

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.

How every country compares

PER · arrivals minus departures

Who arrives in Peru, and who leaves

In 2020–2025 Peru gains 30,535 people a year: everyone who arrives, minus everyone who leaves. The age at which that happens most is 20–24, at 5,710 a year more arriving than leaving.

one square = 1,000 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 339,067 (2018), and a loss of 236,745 (2007).

In 2024, 1,837,219 people living in Peru had been born in another country, 5 of every 100 people there, against fewer than 1 in 1990.

Years in good health in Peru

Of the 71.7 years a baby born in Peru in 2021 could expect, about 63.0 would be lived in full health (95% range 62.3–63.6). The years in less than full health come to 8.7, below the world's 9.5, in lives longer than the world's 71.4 years: more of them are healthy ones.

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: 64.5 healthy years of 74.8. Men: 61.6 of 68.8. In 2019, before the pandemic, the healthy years were 68.4.

Its people aged 15 to 64 are projected to be most numerous in 2050; the ones who finished upper secondary are most numerous later, in 2055.
