Projected population of Kerala (2011-2036)


Observations on Projected Population of Kerala (2011–2036)

Kerala’s total population is projected to increase marginally from 3.34 crore in 2011 to 3.69 crore in 2036, indicating a slow population growth trend.

The male population is expected to rise from 1.60 crore in 2011 to 1.78 crore in 2036, while the female population will grow from 1.74 crore to 1.92 crore.

The number of females continues to exceed males throughout the projection period, highlighting Kerala’s favorable gender ratio.

Population growth shows signs of stabilization after 2030, with only slight annual increases, reflecting a near-zero growth rate.

These projections suggest that Kerala is entering a demographic maturity phase, with implications for workforce composition and aging population management.
