The MOST INTERESTING current 🌎 WORLD POPULATION statistics! 🌎 

What is the current world population?

On November 15, 2022, the global population surpassed 8 billion.

Today, January 7, 2023, the world population is approximately more than 8,009,600,000.

People who currently inhabit the planet represent nearly 7% of all humans who have ever existed.

It has been estimated that a total of roughly 117 billion people have been born throughout history.

90% of the world's population resides in the Northern Hemisphere

60% of the world's population live in Asia.

About 36% of the world's population resides in the two most populous countries, China and India.

The top 5 most populous countries are:

1  China:

2  India:

3  U.S.A.:

4  Indonesia

5  Pakistan

It took more than 200,000 years for the population to reach one billion, and just 219 years more for it to reach eight billion.

Whereas it had taken all of human history, up until about 1800, for the world to reach one billion people, the second billion was reached in only 130 years (1930), the third billion in 29 years (1959), the fourth billion in 15 years (1974), and the fifth billion in only 13 years (1987).

In 40 years, between 1959 and 1999, the world's population doubled from 3 billion to 6 billion.

How many babies are born every second?

In a given year, the ratio of live births to the average population is known as the birth rate.

The global average of 18.1 births per 1,000 people in 2021 translates to nearly 4.3 births every second or 259 births per minute.

Every day, about 385,000 infants are born (140 million a year).

Worldwide, there are about 106 boys born for every 100 girls, although women live longer than men almost everywhere.

How many people die every second?

The Mortality rate or death rate is a measurement of the number of deaths in a given population, scaled to that population's size, per unit of time. Standard units of the mortality rate are deaths per 1,000 people per year.

An estimated 1.8 individuals every second pass away, translating to around 150,000 each day and 56,000,000 annually.

By the end of the century, it is predicted that global population growth will halt, once the number of deaths approaches the number of births.
