What the data shows

  • Austria: 6.94M in 1950, 7.40M in 2100 (projected). The latest estimate is 9.13M in 2023. It peaked at 9.13M in 2023.

About this chart

Austria reaches its highest population at the very end of the estimate period: about 9.1 million in 2023, up from 6.9 million in 1950, 7.6 million in 1975 and 8.0 million in 2000. Nothing in the series sits above that point, so the 2023 estimate is the peak so far.

The UN medium projection turns downward from here: about 9.1 million in 2030, 8.7 million in 2050, 7.9 million in 2075 and 7.4 million in 2100. By then Austria would sit below its 1975 level. Its world rank has already fallen from 53rd in 1950 to 98th in 2023, and the projection takes it to 110th in 2050 and 113th in 2100. Source: UN World Population Prospects 2024.

Frequently asked questions

What is the population of Austria?

Austria had about 9.1 million people in 2023, the latest UN estimate, which ranks 98th in the world. That is also the highest value in the 1950 to 2100 series.

Is Austria's population going to shrink?

The UN medium projection says yes, gradually. It projects about 8.7 million people in 2050 and 7.4 million in 2100, down from 9.1 million in 2023. These are projections under one scenario, and migration assumptions matter a great deal for a country this size.
