Singapore's Total Population from 1990 to 2023

Population Growth Trends in Singapore (1990-2023)
Singapore’s population rose from approximately 3 million in 1990 to nearly 5.9 million by 2023. This growth was largely driven by immigration policies designed to address labor shortages and support economic expansion, especially during the 2000s. The population increased significantly from 4 million in 2000 to over 5 million by 2010. However, recent years have shown slight fluctuations due to evolving immigration policies and the pandemic. Despite a slight dip in 2021, the population rebounded in 2022 and 2023, reflecting Singapore’s appeal as a global economic hub with high living standards and continued attraction for expatriates and professionals.
