Analysis# Vietnam Population Analysis
Vietnam's population of approximately 101 million places it 16th globally, with a 10.15% growth rate over the past decade translating to roughly 9.2 million added residents since 2014. The 1960s represented the nation's demographic peak, likely driven by post-war population rebound and high fertility rates before modernization and urbanization began moderating growth. Current growth patterns reflect Vietnam's transition toward developed-nation demographics, where economic development and rising female education have substantially reduced fertility rates from the post-war surge.
