According to the United Nations World Population Prospects 2024, the estimated population of Denmark is 6,050,018, growing at an annual rate of 0.42%. That works out to a net change of approximately 68 people per day or 2 per hour.
The population change in Denmark is driven by three components: approximately 59,225 births per year and 58,151 deaths per year, plus net migration. Together these components produce the overall growth rate of 0.42% per year.
The total fertility rate stands at 1.52 children per woman. Since this is below the replacement level of 2.1, the population of Denmark would decline over the long term without net immigration.
