Indonesia, the world’s fourth most populous country, has experienced steady population growth over the past several decades. From just 88 million in 1960, Indonesia’s population surged past 200 million in the mid-1990s and is projected to exceed 320 million by 2050. This growth reflects significant changes in health care, fertility rates, and economic development. However, future projections suggest a gradual slowing in growth rate, mirroring trends seen in other developing nations as urbanization and education rise.

The line chart below visualizes this demographic transformation, highlighting Indonesia’s continuous population climb.
