Annual percentage change in population size
Puerto Rico passed its population peak 25 years ago in 2001, and has since declined by 15.5%. The sex ratio of 89 males per 100 females is notably lower than the global average of ~101. The population is aging rapidly—median age will rise from 45 in 2026 to 55 by 2050. Looking ahead, UN projections show the population falling to 995.6K by 2100—less than half of 2026's level.
