Global Population: Overview  

The entire number of people living in a nation or area is referred to as its population. The economy, female fertility rates, birth rates, mortality rates, healthcare facilities, expanding urbanization, immigration and emigration rates, education, and other social and cultural elements are only a few of the many variables that affect a nation's population growth.  

Currently, the global population is growing at a low single-digit annual rate. The population is projected to grow by 81 million people annually. The population of the world has more than doubled between 1959 and the 2000s. The annual rate of population increase reached its high in the late 1960s. The pace of increase has nearly halved since then, and it is anticipated that it will continue to decrease globally in the coming years. 

Argentina Population Distribution 

The population of Argentina reached 45.8 million in 2021. Argentina had the largest population group with 63.8% (29.25million) of the population falling into the working-age group of 15-64 years. Below 15 years, was the second-largest population group in Argentina with 23.8% (10.92 million) of the population. 65 years and above was the third largest population group with 12.3% (5.64 million) of the total population in 2021. 

The proportion of people who are working age is anticipated to rise in 2025, as is the proportion of those 65 and older. Although the working-age population is growing, the rate of growth is slow, and the population of children and adolescents ages 0 to 14 is predicted to fall between 2015 and 2025, which is a cause for concern. 

During the last decade from 2011-2020, the population of the country grew at an average annual rate of 1.1%. According to GlobalData, the population is forecast to increase from 46.2 million in 2022 to 47.1 million in 2024. Argentina’s population was 49.1% male and 50.9% female in 2021.
