Armenia's population is projected to have slipped past its peak: from a high of 3,613,977 in 1991, it is projected at 2,930,915 in 2026. That is a 2.1-fold increase on the 1,382,895 recorded in 1950. The population is shrinking by 0.72% a year, losing about 21.1K people a year. Settlement is fairly dense, at 103 people/km². Half the population is younger than 37.2 years, and the age structure is steadily tilting older: the median is projected to reach 45.2 by 2050. Women outnumber men, at 87 males per 100 females. By 2100, UN projections see it falling to 1,692,198 (-42% from 2026).
