Total Population - Both Sexes. De facto population in a country, area or region as of 1 July of the year indicated. Figures are presented in thousands.

Data

Data comes from United Nations' Population Division datasets. Total population (both sexes combined) by region, subregion and country, annually for 1950-2100 (thousands). Data is cleaned, normalized, "un-pivoted", and represented in nice machine readable way in CSV format. Dataset represented here has several resources:

  • Estimates from 1950 - 2015. Original
  • Medium fertility variant, 2015 - 2100
  • High fertility variant, 2015 - 2100
  • Low fertility variant, 2015 - 2100
  • Constant fertility variant, 2015 - 2100
  • Instant replacement fertility variant, 2015 - 2100
  • Momentum fertility variant, 2015 - 2100
  • Zero Migration variant, 2015 - 2100
  • Constant Mortality variant, 2015 - 2100

Preparation

You will need Python 3.6 or greater and dataflows library to run the script

To update the data run the process script locally:

# Install dataflows
pip install dataflows

# Run the script
python population_estimates.py
Several steps will be done to get the final data.
