About this chart

The Philippines grew from about 18.9 million people in 1950 to 79.6 million in 2000 and 114.9 million in 2023, according to UN estimates. That lifted it from 24th in the world to 13th. The projection continues upward for a few more decades, reaching about 121 million in 2030 and 134 million in 2050.

The UN's medium scenario puts the peak at about 135 million in 2057. After that the total falls, to about 131 million in 2075 and about 114 million in 2100, which lands almost exactly where the country is in 2023. Because other nations keep growing, the projected rank slips to 14th in 2050 and 19th in 2100. Data are from UN World Population Prospects 2024.
