Annual percentage change in population size
Lithuania passed its population peak 35 years ago in 1991, and has since declined by 24.4%. The sex ratio of 90 males per 100 females is notably lower than the global average of ~101. The population is aging rapidly—median age will rise from 42 in 2026 to 50 by 2050. Looking ahead, UN projections show the population falling to 1.2M by 2100—less than half of 2026's level.
