Understanding the live counters
These real-time estimates model demographic activity based on annual rates from 2026. The population is growing, changing by about 0.02 people every second.
- Rates are averaged across the year, so actual daily counts will fluctuate.
- Unexpected events (pandemics, disasters, policy changes) can shift these numbers quickly.
- Migration plays a significant role in net change alongside births and deaths.
