Net migration is the number of people arriving in a country minus the number leaving it, counting both citizens and foreigners. A positive value means net inflow, a negative one net outflow. The UN Population Division publishes the indicator at five-year intervals and derives it residually, as the difference between the actual change in population and natural increase, so errors of registration end up inside it as well.
Important: The value refers to a five-year period rather than to a single year; in the years between reference points the figure repeats.
Annual population growth in percent — natural increase together with migration.
Migration 1951–2024 Refugees by country of asylumHow many refugees a country hosts. The UNHCR series runs from 1951 — from the founding of the organization.
Demography 1960–2025 PopulationResident population of every country as of mid-year — series from 1960 onward.
Demography 1960–2024 Life expectancy at birthLife expectancy at birth — how many years a newborn will live on average.
Demography 1960–2024 Total fertility rateHow many children one woman would bear on average if current age-specific fertility held.
Demography 1960–2024 Crude birth rateLive births per 1,000 people of population per year.
