Analysis# Jordan Population Analysis
Jordan's population of 11.55 million represents a 31.41% increase over the past decade, reflecting one of the Middle East's most dramatic demographic shifts driven by Syrian refugee influx and natural growth. The 2014s decade marked peak growth, indicating that expansion rates have moderated since then despite Jordan's continued status as the #83 most populous country globally. With data spanning 1960–2024, this trajectory shows sustained high growth from the nation's post-independence period through the 2010s, though recent figures suggest the rate of increase is decelerating from its historical peak.
