Hungary's Population: A Dynamic and Evolving Landscape
Current Population Estimates
As of June 11, 2024, Hungary's population stands at 9,535,249, according to Population Clock Live. This figure represents a slight decline since June 9, 2024, when Worldometer estimated the population to be 10,003,054. It is important to note that these estimates may vary slightly due to different methodologies and data sources.
Historical and Projected Population Trends
Hungary's population has undergone significant changes over time. In the early 1990s, the country's population began to decline due to low birth rates and emigration. However, this trend has reversed in recent years, with a modest increase in population growth. Projections indicate that Hungary's population will continue to slowly decline over the coming decades, reaching 9,227,000 by 2050.
In the 10th century, Hungary's population was estimated to be between 120,000 and 600,000. By the 13th century, it had grown to around 2 million. Hungary's population reached its peak in the 1980s, when it surpassed 10 million. However, since then, the country's population has been slowly declining, largely due to low birth rates and emigration.
