About this indicator

Frequency
Annual
Release
Published annually, referring to a specific date in the year.
What it is
It records the number of inhabitants of Azerbaijan and how it changes over time. It is a structural indicator underpinning many economic and social ratios (GDP per capita, density, per-head rates). It is published by the State Statistical Committee.
How it's calculated
It is derived from population censuses and updated with records of births, deaths and net migration. A figure referring to an annual reference date is usually provided.
Market implications
Demographic trends shape potential growth, the labour market, consumption and spending on pensions and healthcare. In Azerbaijan, with a moderately growing population, it is a driver of domestic demand in an economy highly dependent on oil and gas.
Limitations
It is a low-frequency figure, and intercensal numbers are estimates subject to revision with each new census or better migration data. Migration flows are hard to measure precisely.
