Analysis# Finland Population Analysis
Finland's population of 5.62 million represents modest growth, with a 2.9% increase over the past decade equating to approximately 158,000 new residents. Ranked 114th globally, Finland maintains a mid-tier population position despite its significant geographical size, reflecting Northern Europe's characteristically low population density. The population's growth trajectory has substantially decelerated since its peak in the 1963s decade, indicating a transition toward demographic stagnation typical of developed Nordic economies.
