2091 Population

By the year 2091, the world’s population is projected to have stabilized or begun a slow decline after peaking mid-century, with estimates ranging between 9 and 10 billion people. Africa will be the most populous continent, potentially home to over 4 billion people—nearly half the global population—driven by high fertility rates in countries like Nigeria, Ethiopia, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Asia’s population, after peaking earlier, will likely be in gradual decline, though India will remain the world’s most populous country, followed by China, Indonesia, and Pakistan. Europe’s population will have aged and shrunk, with many countries experiencing significant demographic challenges due to low birth rates and high life expectancy. The Americas will see modest growth, with the United States, Brazil, and Mexico remaining the largest countries by population. Oceania, led by Australia and Papua New Guinea, will continue to grow but will still account for a small fraction of the world’s people. Urbanization will be nearly universal, with mega-cities across Africa and Asia dominating the demographic landscape.
