The Ireland population density map shows the number of inhabitants in relation to Ireland size. This demographic map of Ireland will allow you to know demography and structure of the population of Ireland in Northern Europe. The Ireland density map is downloadable in PDF, printable and free.

Ireland ranks number 124 in the list of countries (and dependencies) by population. The population density in Ireland is 72 per Km2 (186 people per mi2) as you can see in Ireland population density map. The total land area is 68,890 Km2 (26,599 sq. miles). 63.0 % of the population is urban (3,111,336 people in 2020). Although the population of Ireland is expected to continue to grow in the years to come, it will likely do so at an increasingly slow rate, however this could only be temporary. Current projections believe that the annual rate of growth will decrease from 0.79% in 2020 down to 0.43% in 2050. Over this same time period, the population of Ireland is predicted to be 4,887,992 in 2020, 5,219,951 in 2030, 5,530,561 in 2040, and 5,801,399 by 2050.

The island of Ireland is located in the North Atlantic and is the 3rd largest island in Europe with an area of 32,595 square miles (84,421 square kilometers) which ranks 122nd in the world in terms of size. The Republic of Ireland covers 5/6 of the island while Northern Ireland, part of the United Kingdom, covers the rest of the island. As of 2017, the population of Ireland was 4.784 million people, leading to a population density of roughly 147 people per square mile (57 people per square kilometer) which ranks at roughly 122nd in the world in terms of population density as its shown in Ireland population density map.

Ireland population was estimated to be 5.01 million in April 2021, which is the first time the population has risen above 5 million since the 1851 census, when the comparable population was 5.11 million,” said James Hegarty, a statistician with the agency. The total population on the island of Ireland in 1851 was 6.6 million. Including today Northern Ireland population of 1.89 million, the island now has 6.9 million people as its mentioned in Ireland population density map. The republic population grew by 34,000, or 0.7%, in the year to April. This was smaller than the previous year increase of 55,900.
