Holy See's population is shrinking, with more deaths than births each year. The sex ratio of 91 males per 100 females is notably lower than the global average of ~101. In 2026, with a median age of 56, this is one of the world's oldest populations. Population density is high at 1,151 people per km². Looking ahead, UN projections show the population reaching 1.4K by 2100—more than double 2026's level.
