Total number of people living in the country.
How many people live per square kilometer of land.
How long a newborn baby can expect to live on average.
Average number of children born to each woman. About 2.1 is needed to keep population stable.
Half the population is younger and half is older than this age.
Difference between people moving in and out. Positive means more arrivals.
Population Trend
How the total population has changed over the decades. A rising line means the country has been growing, a flat or falling line indicates stagnation or decline.
Population Projection to 2100
Estimated future population based on current trends in birth rates, death rates, and migration. The dashed line shows this is a projection, not actual data.
Birth Rate vs Death Rate
Birth rate (green) vs. death rate (red) per 1,000 people per year. When the birth rate is higher than the death rate, the population grows naturally.
Life Expectancy (Male vs Female)
Average number of years a newborn can expect to live. Blue shows men, red shows women. Women typically live longer in most countries.
Fertility Rate Trend
Total Fertility Rate — the average number of children per woman. A rate of about 2.1 is needed to maintain the population without immigration.
Population Pyramid
Shows the age distribution of the population. Blue bars (left) represent men, red bars (right) represent women. A wide base means a young population, a wide top means an aging population.

About Country — Brazil
Brazil is a country in South America (South America) with a total population of 211,998,573 as of 2024. It covers an area of 8,515,767 km², resulting in a population density of 25.3 people per km².
The average life expectancy is 75.8 years (72.8 for men, 79.0 for women). The fertility rate stands at 1.62 children per woman, and the median age of the population is 36.9 years.
The country's population growth rate is 0.41% per year. Net migration is -225,510 people, indicating that more people are leaving the country than arriving. The infant mortality rate is 12.5 per 1,000 live births.
Demographic Profile
Brazil is located in South America, a part of South America, and covers an area of 8,515,767 km². With a population of 211,998,573, the country has a population density of 25.3 inhabitants per square kilometer, which is below the global average of approximately 60 people per km².
The demographic structure of Brazil reveals an aging population. The median age of 36.9 years means that half of the population is younger and half is older than this age. This aging population structure poses challenges for pension systems, healthcare provision, and the labor market, as the ratio of working-age to retired individuals continues to decline.
Health and Longevity
Life expectancy in Brazil stands at 75.8 years overall — 72.8 years for men and 79.0 years for women. This places the country among those with high life expectancy globally, reflecting well-developed healthcare systems and living standards. The infant mortality rate is 12.5 per 1,000 live births, which reflects moderate healthcare conditions with room for improvement.
Fertility and Population Growth
The total fertility rate (TFR) of 1.62 children per woman is below the replacement level of 2.1, which without immigration leads to population decline over time. The population is growing at a rate of 0.41% per year. This moderate growth rate reflects a balance between natural increase and migration patterns.
Migration
Net migration in Brazil is -225,510 people, meaning more people are leaving the country than arriving. Emigration may reflect economic challenges or conflict, and can lead to brain drain as skilled workers seek opportunities elsewhere.
Outlook
Based on current demographic trends, Brazil's population dynamics reflect broader patterns seen across South America. As the population ages, adapting social security systems and healthcare to serve a growing elderly population will be a key challenge.
