Western Sahara Population Pyramid (1950–2100)
Western Sahara in 2026
The population of Western Sahara in 2026 is estimated at 610,813. A decade earlier, in 2016, the population was 499,650; it has grown by 22.2% since. The median age is 33.8 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there are 32.3 children under 15 and 9.9 people aged 65 or over. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
