The National Statistics Office of Georgia (Geostat) reported that as of January 1, 2023, the population of Georgia equals 3 736.4 thousand persons, registering a 1.3 percent increase from the previous year. It should be mentioned that 2022 resulted in a negative natural increase (-6 799) and positive net migration (54 509).

"60.4 percent of the population lives in urban settlements. At the same time, almost one-third of the total population lives in Tbilisi. As of January 1, 2023, the share of persons aged 0-14 equals 20.7 percent, the share of the working-age population (15-64 years old) − 63.8 percent, while the share of elderly (65 years and older) - 15.6 percent," the report added.

The information stated: "As of January 1, 2023, the male population equaled 1 793.8 thousand persons, and the female population was 1 942.5 thousand persons. In Georgia, 48 percent of the population is male, and 52 percent is female. The sex ratio, i.e., the number of men per 100 women, equals 92. It is worth mentioning that under the age of 35, the number of men exceeds that of women, while the opposite situation is observed for the age group of 35 and over, which could be explained by females’ higher life expectancy."
