Turkey Population

Turkey in a global context

With about 85,816,199 people, Turkey is home to roughly 1.07% of the world's population and ranks #16 among the countries on this list. Its population density of 110/km² is about 1.8 times the world average of 62 people per km², across a total area of 783,562 km².

Growth trend

At an annual growth rate of 0.67%, Turkey adds roughly 574,969 people per year. If that rate held steady, the population would reach about 91,742,371 in ten years and double in roughly 104 years. Real growth rarely stays constant, so treat these figures as a simple projection rather than a forecast.
