The population of Uzbekistan has reached 37.8 million

The population of Uzbekistan has reached a new record level. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

According to the National Statistics Committee, as of July 1, 2025, the permanent resident population of the country reached 37 million 859 thousand 698. It is significant that this figure has increased by 2 percent compared to the same period last year.

The statistics agency also provided detailed information on the gender and living areas of the population. According to the data, the number of women is 18.8 million, while men make up 19.1 million.

This situation differs from the general trend worldwide, as the number of men in Uzbekistan is slightly higher than that of women. Additionally, the urbanization process in the country is clearly reflecting the demographic situation.

The number of urban residents has reached 19.3 million, while the rural population is approximately 18.6 million. This indicates that the urban population is significantly larger than the rural population and demonstrates the ongoing consistency of urbanization.

Experts believe that the growth of the population will create new demands and challenges in the economy, infrastructure, healthcare, and education sectors. Therefore, measures must be taken to create new jobs, build modern housing, and develop transport infrastructure in the country.

Such changes in the field of demography, the composition of the population, and the rates of urbanization will be of great importance for Uzbekistan's future development.
