Egypt Population

Egypt in a global context

With about 112,716,598 people, Egypt is home to roughly 1.40% of the world's population and ranks #13 among the countries on this list. Its population density of 112/km² is about 1.8 times the world average of 62 people per km², across a total area of 1,002,450 km².

Growth trend

At an annual growth rate of 1.56%, Egypt adds roughly 1,758,379 people per year. If that rate held steady, the population would reach about 131,587,548 in ten years and double in roughly 45 years. Real growth rarely stays constant, so treat these figures as a simple projection rather than a forecast.
