Annual
Release
Published annually, referring to a specific date in the year.
What it is
Measures the number of inhabitants of North Macedonia and how it changes over time. Published by the State Statistical Office, it is a structural indicator underpinning GDP per capita, population density and a range of per-head ratios.
How it's calculated
Estimated from the population census and from data on births, deaths and net migration, with projections between censuses. It is reported as a population level at an annual reference date.
Market implications
Demographics shape the North Macedonian economy's potential growth and its labour market; persistent emigration shrinks the workforce and weighs on social spending. It frames the long-run outlook rather than short-term market moves.
Limitations
It is a low-frequency series with contested coverage: the long gap between censuses and heavy emigration have produced estimates subject to revision and debate over the true count.
