British Virgin Islands Population

The population growth of the British Virgin Islands (BVI) has been relatively modest over recent decades. As a British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean, the BVI has experienced steady, but not rapid, increases in population, influenced by both natural growth and migration. According to the most recent estimates, the population stands at around 32,000 people as of 2023. Factors such as limited land area, economic opportunities primarily centered on tourism and financial services, and occasional impacts from natural disasters like hurricanes have shaped the demographic trends. While the BVI continues to attract expatriates and workers from neighboring islands, its overall population growth rate remains moderate compared to some other Caribbean territories.
