2063 Population

By the year 2063, the world’s population is projected to reach around 10 billion people, reflecting ongoing growth but at a slower pace than in earlier decades. Africa will experience the most significant increase, potentially doubling its population to over 2.5 billion, with Nigeria becoming the third most populous country globally. Asia will remain the most populous continent, with countries like India and China each exceeding 1.3 billion, though India is likely to remain the largest. Southeast Asia’s population will stabilize, while East Asia, particularly China and Japan, may see declines due to aging populations. Europe’s population is expected to shrink, with many countries experiencing negative growth and advanced aging. The Americas will see modest growth, with the United States approaching 400 million and Latin America’s population plateauing. Oceania, led by Australia, will continue gradual growth, reaching nearly 60 million. Urbanization will intensify, with most people living in cities, and megacities emerging across Africa and Asia.
